Referring to teeth by name, not numbers, improves communication, reduces confusion, and helps patients understand their dental health. It enhances accuracy in diagnosis, treatment, and education.
The CT/CBCT scan is the foundation for creating anatomical implants. A poor-quality scan makes it difficult or even impossible to design a precise implant. The chain is only as strong as its weakest link.
It is important that the entire upper or lower jaw is always scanned so that a root extension can be constructed if necessary.A high-quality CT/CBCT scan of the entire upper or lower jaw is required, depending on where the hopeless tooth is located. It is absolutely not recommended to scan only part of the jaw, as this ensures you keep all available options open.
To reduce artifacts, it is advisable that your dentist removes, if possible, ceramic or metal crowns from the tooth to be restored, as this will significantly improve the quality of the scan.
It’s most important that your upper and lower jaw are strictly separated. Usually this is done with a wooden spatula, syringe, or something equivalent. Otherwise, it creates unnecessary artifacts from opposite bite and matching problems of enoral scans.
We only accept 3D images in DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) format. There are dozens of proprietary formats which we won’t import into our systems, for security reasons. If your dentist has a proprietary file format, they will be able to export it in DICOM format.
We need your enoral situation for two reasons:
There are three ways.
Your dentist will also send us the correct occlusion by matching the upper and lower jaw in the centric position. If this is not correct, the provisional will be too high or too low.
STL is a standard file format for 3D objects, in the same way DICOM is for radiological scans Please understand that we only work with standard formats, we do not accept proprietary formats.
The radiology data are too big to send via email. Data are only accepted via Dropbox or WeTransfer and a link send to info@bioimplant.at
For a fixed maryland bridge, your dentist has to provide your tooth color, corresponding to the VITA/VITAPAN or IVOCLAR/CHROMASCOP systems.
Please upload the data to Dropbox or WeTransfer and send us the link.
X-ray images can only be sent to info@bioimplant.at at and not via the contact form.
