“…In addition, spiral CT allows better resolution in the generated images. 12 DelBalso et al 4 stated that 3D-CT surface rendered images, while not absolutely essential in pre-operative evaluation of dental implants, provide a gross overview of the alveolar ridge and adjacent osseous structures.…”

Traditionally oral surgeons and dentists have evaluated the jaws using intraoral films and panoramic radiographs. The involvement of radiologists has been limited. In the past few years dedicated CT-software-programs developed to evaluate dental implant patients have provided a new look at the jaws. The complex anatomy is described and identified on human skulls and on axial, panoramic, and cross-sectional images. With this anatomic description Dental-CT-scans are used to demonstrate the anatomy of maxilla and the mandible. An overview of the technique of Dental-CT is provided, furthermore the radiation dose of different organs is explained. Suggestions to reduce these doses by simple modifications of the recommended protocols are given.

“…If excess angulation should exist between the vertical axis through the fixture and that through the alveolar ridge, the resultant force vector may fall in an area unable to withstand occlusal forces and breakdown of the surrounding bone may occur. [8] Bone density of implant site Bone density could be quantitatively determined on CT. One case was found to have poor quality bone that is <600 HU. Values >600 HU is desirable by oral surgeons for implant placement.…”

Background: Dental implant placement has become a very common procedure in the modern era. Pre operative assessment is of immense value to ensure the long term stability of dental implants. Aim: The aim of our study was to compare the efficacy of Dental CT with radiography in planning implant surgery and pre-operative evaluation prior to implant placement. Methods: We conducted a hospital based prospective study in which patients for dental implant placement were evaluated with Dental CT and Radiography. Results: The radiographs overestimated the height of the alveolar ridge in majority of the pre implant cases as compared to Dental CT. For bucco-lingual analysis Dental CT provided an overwhelming advantage over Dental Radiography and clinical examination. The angle of alveolar ridge could not be assessed on radiographs whereas could be accurately estimated on Dental CT. Bone density of the implant site could be quantitatively determined on Dental CT whereas could not be determined on Radiographs. Conclusions: We concluded that Dental CT yields significantly better information than radiographs regarding pre-operative assessment of dental implants.
