چکیده
Rehabilitation of missing teeth with the use of dental implants has become the most accepted mode of treatment in modern dental practice. Success in oral implantology is highly dependent on proper diagnosis and pre-operative treatment planning, a gap that has been filled by currently available diagnostic imaging modalities. This article reviews various common imaging modalities used in implant dentistry along with an analysis of their clinical application.

متن کاملA method of gauging dental radiographs during treatment planning for dental implants.
AIM The goal of pre-surgical dental implant treatment planning is to position the optimum number and size of implant fixtures to achieve the best restorative results. The purpose of this article is to describe the use of radiographic imaging software to calibrate and measure anatomical landmarks to overcome inherent distortions associated with dental radiographs. The procedure along with its po...
