The future of advanced dental care lies with the possibilities presented by artificial intelligence (AI). From routine care to specialised treatments, the potential for automated workflows offers promise to both clinicians and patients.
However, clinicians may not know that these successful solutions are already here, including AI workflows from Carestream Dental, aiding dental implant planning for outstanding result
The CS 8200 3D Advance Edition CBCT scanner features AI-powered software that simplifies complex workflows, creating confidence in a variety of clinical situations.
Automate your implant planning
Dental implants require highly accurate and predictable treatment plans to ensure patients receive the best possible care, for aesthetic and functional results. The all-new AI-powered implant planning software from Carestream Dental enables automation in three key areas for improved confidence and efficiency, including in:
- Case set-up
- Data matching
- Virtual crown design and implant placement
During case set-up, clinicians will know the importance of identifying key anatomical landmarks that make-or-break implant care. This includes the mandibular nerve canal, which must be respected throughout planning and placement. The AI-powered implant planning software enables automated recognition of the panoramic curve and mandibular nerve canal, mapping them out in seconds with precision. Clinicians can use this as the basis of their treatment plan, saving valuable time whilst maintaining complete confidence in their workflow.
All information can be added to, amended, or taken away by the clinician, ensuring each element is still under the control of the dental professional. This is not only important from a dental-legal standpoint, but also keeps decision making firmly within the professional’s hands – AI is used as a supplemental tool that helps find the best possible outcome sooner.
Pair up your scans
A complete picture is needed for well-informed treatment planning, and Carestream Dental knows that a CBCT scan is only one part of a comprehensive assessment. Now, clinicians can combine CBCT results with digital impressions of the dentition, automatically merging them with AI to create a precise virtual model. This can be manipulated and added to, creating a base for effective treatment design.
The open platform also integrates with leading third-party intraoral scanners to create a seamless workflow, adding to the solutions in your practice that you wholeheartedly trust.
With an automatic workflow, clinicians save time connecting vital information, and instead have the full picture in front of them in an instant.
Design with confidence
AI can also be used for virtual crown design and implant placement, even in complex cases. Clinicians simply select an implant from the Carestream Dental implant library, filled with a range of renowned solutions, before the system automatically calculates optimal virtual implant placement and crown design. This is based entirely off of anatomical information available on the patient model, taking any guess work out of your care.
Clinicians can assess this automated placement, which accounts for all local structures for an aesthetic and functional finish. The time saved can then be focused on finalising key features of care, and ensuring the patient experience is the best it can be.
More to discover with the CS 8200 3D Advance
For dental practices looking to unlock new possibilities in their care, the CS 8200 3D Advance is a versatile imaging system with an expanded field of view, and four different treatment uses. This includes CBCT, panoramic and cephalometric imaging, as well as 3D object scanning.
Dental professionals can also benefit from an intuitive user interface, which makes management of the imaging area simple prior to exams.
The wide variety of field of view options helps clinicians target dental and maxillofacial structures with ease, minimising exposure and maximising case information where needed.
Pairing all this with AI makes the future of dental care so much clearer. Learn more about AI in dental imaging and your dental implant workflows by contacting the Carestream Dental team today.
