Maryland-based Olney Center for Maxillofacial Surgery is adding Carestream Dental’s CS 9600 CBCT scanner to its practice to assist with wisdom tooth removal procedures.
The scanner can construct a 3D image of a patient’s teeth, mouth, jaw and neck to make the procedure safer and reduce the risk of nerve damage, according to an Aug. 2 new release.
Carestream’s technology is able to show the location of nerves, creates minimal radiation exposure and uses artificial intelligence to produce consistent and accurate results, the release said.
