Orthopos XG 3D

At ASC, you will find a 3D computed tomography scanner (3D Scanner).

This is a progressive and advanced diagnostic method that ensures measurement accuracy down to a fraction of a millimeter. With the help of 3D computed tomography, it is possible to diagnose cavities and tissue processes that are difficult to detect with other methods.

The modern cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scanner provides a highly detailed 3D view of the patient’s dental condition. This enables our doctors to accurately diagnose and plan your treatment. Typically, if you are visiting our clinic for the first time, everything will start with a 3D scan.

Advantages of 3D Scanning:

Accurate imaging without any geometric distortion.
Ability to examine every area from all angles and analyze images layer by layer.
Data obtained through 3D scanning is far more detailed and informative than data from standard X-rays (2D imaging).
Significant time efficiency: Scanning the entire dentofacial system is much faster than examining each tooth individually.
Much lower radiation exposure to the patient’s body.

Difference Between 3D Scanner and Panoramic X-ray

Panoramic X-ray or 2D Diagnostic Imaging (Panoramic Radiography):
- A static, two-dimensional image that shows the structures of the teeth and jaw in a single plane.
- Overlapping anatomical structures can make analysis more challenging.
- Projection distortion may alter the size or shape of the object, leading to less accurate results.
- The viewing angle cannot be changed; additional X-rays are required for more details.
3D Scanner or 3D Diagnostic Imaging (Computed Tomography):
- 3D imaging allows for examination of the object from all angles and in three planes.
- Tissue sections can be made with minimal thickness, providing a clear view of anatomical features.
- Projection distortions are eliminated, enabling precise measurement of height, thickness, and other parameters of anatomical formations.
- In 3D scanning, the object is presented “one-to-one,” resulting in more accurate and detailed information for diagnosis and treatment planning.

The Sirona Orthopos XG 3D device combines the capabilities of both 2D and 3D imaging, significantly enhancing the possibilities for dental diagnostics.

FAQ

Frequently Ask Questions

What is a 3D scanner in dentistry?

A 3D scanner is a device that creates detailed digital models of the teeth and surrounding structures using advanced imaging technology, such as X-rays or lasers.

How does a 3D scanner work?

The scanner uses X-rays or light to capture detailed images of the teeth and bones in three dimensions. These images are then processed with specialized software, providing accurate views of the dental structures.

What are the advantages of using a 3D scanner in dentistry?

Greater accuracy: Provides a complete and detailed view of the teeth and surrounding bones.
Faster procedure: The image acquisition process is quick and efficient.
Less invasive: There is no need for impression materials to capture the shape.
Better planning: Facilitates precise planning for surgical interventions such as implants.

Is the 3D scanner used only for dental implants?

No, the 3D scanner is also used for general diagnostics, crown and veneer creation, root canal treatment, as well as orthodontics.

Is the 3D scanning process painful?

No, 3D scanning is a completely painless procedure. Patients usually feel comfortable throughout the entire process.

Is the 3D scanner safe?

Yes, 3D scanning is safe. Most devices use minimal or limited radiation to create images, which does not cause harm to the patient.
