Many factors can impact the success of your dental implant. For this reason, a CT scan is recommended to properly plan complex implant cases. This advanced diagnostic tool gives Dr. Morgan a three-dimensional view of the anatomy of your mouth. This allows him to see the width and density of your jawbone, the exact location of neighboring tooth roots and the location of the nerves. A "virtual" surgery can be performed prior to actually having the implants placed. With this precise information, Dr. Morgan can plan the ideal location for your implants and thus ensure the best, most predictable outcome.
