3D Dental Imaging

In a dental cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) machine, the "MAR" (metal artefact reduction) function is a feature that is designed to reduce the impact of metal objects on the images produced by the machine. This is especially useful in cases where the patient has metal restorations or other metal objects in the mouth, as these can cause significant artefacts on the CBCT images. The MAR function works by applying a special algorithm to the raw data obtained from the CBCT scan. This algorithm is designed to identify and correct for the presence of metal in the images. It does...

Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a type of medical imaging technique that uses a specialized X-ray machine to produce detailed 3D images of the teeth, jaw, and surrounding structures. These images can be used to plan dental implants, as well as to diagnose and treat a variety of dental conditions.In dental implant planning, CBCT images can be used to determine the size and shape of the jawbone, as well as the location and orientation of the teeth. This information is crucial for placing the implant in the optimal position to ensure proper function and aesthetics. CBCT images can also...
