Implant care is complex, and requires a high level of clinical expertise for predictable and successful outcomes.
Digital tools have developed to optimise this workflow, making case assessments and treatment planning more efficient. With AI integrated into the CS 3D Imaging software from Carestream Dental, an exciting new addition to the CS 8200 3D Advance Edition CBCT scanner, the way clinicians can provide care has changed forever.
Clinicians can be more confident in the entire dental implant workflow, with accelerated manual tasks – and the ability to provide more predictable outcomes.
Follow the journey, from beginning to end
Many steps in the implant planning process can be optimised with the help of AI solutions from Carestream Dental. When setting up a case, the system analyses the available radiographic scans and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) information and automatically maps the panoramic curve and mandibular nerve canal in just seconds. With the ability to deliver accurate results that help to form the basis of an effective treatment plan, clinicians can have confidence in a quick reliable workflow.
Seamless integration
Multiple imaging workflows are often needed throughout the treatment planning process. The CS 3D Imaging software combines CBCT scans and digital impressions automatically, syncing landmarks to create a precise virtual model. Clinicians can then utilise this to plan implant placement with accuracy, enabling long-lasting and aesthetic results.
The open platform also syncs with leading third-party intraoral scanners. This means clinicians can pair results from an industry-defining Carestream CBCT system, like the CS 8200 3D Advance Edition, with their preferred digital impression making solution.
For clinicians wondering how AI can work with their current approach to implant dentistry, this use of the application opens many doors. It makes adoption of new techniques practically seamless – with a greater effect seen on treatment outcomes.
Aesthetic and functional design
When balancing occlusal forces, bone and soft tissue health, available space, and much more, it takes time to select the correct implant for each site. On top of that comes crown creation, aiming for a seamless appearance that can withstand every functional demand placed upon it.
The CS 3D Imaging software steps in once again. Clinicians select an implant from the Carestream Dental implant library, and virtual placement is automatically calculated based on all available anatomical information. This can be adapted where needed, but gives an effective solution that can be adopted into the final treatment plan.
On top of every implant is a crown, and on top of these AI abilities is the automatic generation of a virtual crown design. It will be harmonious with the existing dentition, and the information can be passed onto the dental technician team for an outstanding result.
A clear vision
AI powered implant planning workflows, available from Q3 of 2025, are made even more effective with high-quality imaging solutions that deliver the greatest level of detail.
The CS 8200 3D Advance Edition utilises unlocks more possibilities for dental professionals. With up to 11 selectable fields of view, it’s possible to get imaging detail at every site that twill be affected. This includes an upgrade to a 16×10 scan, which scans the full jaw including the TMJ, maxillary sinus and airway – perfect for complex cases.
Discover ultimate versatility, as the 4-in-1 system delivers panoramic and cephalometric imaging, as well as CBCT and 3D object scans. Plus, CS MAR (Metal Artifact Reduction) technology makes images clear when patients have existing metal-based restorations. Clinicians can compare images with and without the effect in place for accurate diagnoses and a reduced risk of misinterpretation.
Physically, the CS 8200 3D Advance Edition is compact, with easily adjustable feature to support a wide range of patients. This means that not only does it fit into your workflow, but it can have an immediate place in your practice.
Just picture the possibilities
AI solutions and high-quality imaging changes the way you approach implant care. With a more efficient and accurate workflow, each case can be handled with confidence – and your patients will ultimately be the ones to benefit.
