Radiology and dental x-rayStomo Clinic Wroclaw

The CS 9600 cone beam computed tomographyu003Cstrongu003E(CBCTu003C/strongu003E) system is a state-of-the-art technology developed for oral surgery and implantology – although its applications are much broader. At STOMO Clinic, we also use it in orthodontics, general dentistry, microscopic endodontics and periodontics. u003Cbru003Eu003Cbru003EWe also use the Carestream Dental 9600 for ENT diagnostics and oral surgery. The brand, formerly known as Kodak, has years of experience in manufacturing diagnostic, optical and photographic equipment. u003Cbru003Eu003Cbru003EKey capabilities of the system:u003Cbru003E- high-precision 2D panoramic imagingu003Cbru003E- u003Cstrongu003ECBCTu003C/strongu003E with excellent image qualityu003Cbru003E- 3D scanning of the patientu0027s faceu003Cbru003E- cephalometric imagingu003Cbru003Eu003Cbru003EThe CS 9600 allows all major dental examinations to be performed in one clinic – quickly, accurately and comfortably.

The CS 9600 diagnostic system adheres to the ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) principle of minimizing radiation dose while maintaining maximum diagnostic quality.u003Cbru003Eu003Cbru003EUsing an innovative 120 kV generator, the device enables high-quality images to be taken with an extremely low radiation dose – lower than that of older CT scanners and even lower than that of an airplane flight.u003Cbru003Eu003Cbru003EAt STOMO Clinic, patient health and safety are a priority. Thatu0027s why itu0027s always a good idea to ask about the quality and parameters of the equipment, especially if youu0027re planning u003Cstrongu003Ean X-rayu003C/strongu003E at another office.

The developers of the Carestream Dental 9600 system have introduced a revolutionary approach to radiation dose selection – the device automatically adjusts the dose to the patientu0027s individual build, not just age, gender or weight.u003Cbru003EWith the SmartAuto system, the Pan u003Cstrongu003ECTu003C/strongu003E scanner first scans the patientu0027s morphology and, based on this, selects the optimal exposure parameters. This solution works particularly well for children and people with fine facial and jaw structure. u003Cbru003Eu003Cbru003EAt STOMO Clinic, we pride ourselves on using diagnostics that are not only effective, but also as safe as possible and tailored to each individual patient.

u003Cstrongu003EComputed tomographyu003C/strongu003E provides real images of a patientu0027s tissues and precise measurements. The CS 9600 system offers up to 14 different imaging fields (from 4×4 cm to 16×17 cm), minimizes artifacts and provides excellent image quality. u003Cbru003Eu003Cbru003EThe deviceu0027s greatest advantage is its versatility – it allows diagnosis of the entire maxillofacial region, from individual teeth to the paranasal sinuses. It is especially useful for implant planning, extraction of retained teeth (e.g., eights), as well as for procedures such as bone grafting or sinus lift. u003Cbru003Eu003Cbru003ETomography also allows accurate preparation for the treatment of difficult cases, which translates into greater precision and success of treatment.u003Cbru003EGood diagnostics shortens treatment time, reduces the risk of complications and speeds up recovery. This is invaluable especially inu003Cstrongu003E endodonticsu003C/strongu003E, including repeatu003Cstrongu003E endodonticsu003C/strongu003E. u003Cbru003Eu003Cbru003EAnother advantage is speed – the system instantly creates a 3D image, without waiting for results.

Computed tomography is irreplaceable in many clinical situations, including:u003Cbru003Eu003Cbru003E- In difficult surgical cases, such as. with retained teeth adjacent to the inferior alveolar nerveu003Cbru003E- In planning implant procedures – allows accurate measurement of the height and width of the alveolar process-u003Cbru003E- In root canal treatment – for localization of canals, evaluation of perforations, periapical lesions and injuries not visible on 2D imagesu003Cbru003E- In orthodontics – for precise treatment planning, localization of retained teeth, analysis of tooth roots and temporomandibular jointsu003Cbru003Ein periodontics – for better diagnosis of bone defectsu003Cbru003Eu003Cbru003EAt STOMO Clinic, thanks to the Carestream Dental CS 9600 system, we also perform the highest quality digital diagnostics: u003Cstrongu003EX-rays of teethu003C/strongu003E, panoramic, spot and lateral images

At STOMO Clinic, we offer state-of-the-art u003Cstrongu003E3D scanning of the dentitionu003C/strongu003E, which replaces traditional impression taking for diagnostic models, prosthetic restorations or braces.u003Cbru003Eu003Cbru003EAlthough we use the best available impression compounds and match the spoons to the patientu0027s anatomical conditions, we realize that for many people an impression is an unpleasant procedure. Thatu0027s why we offer a comfortable solution – scanning without mass. u003Cbru003Eu003Cbru003EThe process is completely digital – the shape of the teeth is recorded by computer, without pain or discomfort. Immediately we get a precise three-dimensional image on the screen. The system eliminates the risk of errors caused by shifting impressions or incorrect bite.u003Cbru003E3D scanning is another innovation that we successfully use in our clinic in Wroclaw.

Patients who come to STOMO Clinic with a referral receive the performed X-ray examination in the form of a CD or electronic download link. Normally, such images do not contain a description of the examination. u003Cbru003Eu003Cbru003EIf the patient also wants to receive a description of the X-ray, he or she should inform our staff u003Cstrongu003Ebefore making an appointmentu003C/strongu003E. We will then reserve additional time to provide a description and discuss the results – both for panoramic images (2D X-ray – OPG) and CT scansu003Cstrongu003E(3D X-ray – CBCTu003C/strongu003E).
