Advanced Oral Surgical Technology – Burke, VA
Using Cutting-Edge Technology
for the Best Results
As a team of oral surgeons, we value using the latest clinically-proven technology and techniques that the medical field has to offer, which is why you’ll find our office stocked with a digital X-ray imaging system, a cone beam 3D scanner, and surgical dental implant guides. Not only does our advanced oral surgical technology in Burke allow us to streamline your consultation and surgery, but it also allows us to provide you with results that stand the test of time.
All-Digital X-Rays
In the past, X-rays were captured on film, requiring the images to need to be developed, yielding a lower quality. Today, we utilize all-digital X-ray imaging systems that are more efficient, clearer, and allow our team of oral surgeons to easily review your case within moments of them being taken. The process only takes a moment, and the photos are immediately viewable to your doctor on a large, chairside monitor, making treatment planning and education easier than ever.
3D Cone Beam Imaging
Our 3D cone beam CT scanner is an impressive piece of technology that we utilize for facial surgeries, impacted wisdom tooth extractions, and other important services we provide. All you need to do is rest your chin on a stand and the device will circle your head for a few seconds, allowing the image to be immediately viewable to our doctors. This device doesn’t just allow the team to see the area that lies below your gumline like X-rays do—it provides us with a detailed, 3D map of your anatomical facial structure, showing us the location of nerves, sinuses, and even your bone density.
Virtual & Guided Dental Implant Surgery
When it comes to the surgical placement of dental implants, precision is crucial. Instead of placing your implants freehand, we print a surgical guide that will allow us to secure them in the most supportive, ideal positions within your jawbone. It also helps us place them at perfect angles and depth to ensure that the posts will last for years to come. Our guided dental implant technology paired with our virtual diagnostic imaging allows us to be less invasive, minimize the risk of complications, and shorten recovery periods.
