3D Imaging in St. Petersburg, FL

What Is 3D Imaging?

At Boland Mannari Aguirre Oral, Facial & Dental Implant Surgery, we utilize state-of-the-art 3D imaging technology to obtain detailed, high-resolution images of your teeth, jaw, and facial structures. This advanced imaging system allows our surgeons to:

  • Precisely plan surgical procedures
  • Assess bone density and volume
  • Identify anatomical variations
  • Minimize radiation exposure

Our St. Petersburg practice is equipped with the latest in oral and maxillofacial technology, including:

  • 3D CT Imaging for accurate diagnosis and surgical planning
  • Intraoral Scanners to map your dental and facial structures
  • 3D-Printed Surgical Guides and Implants for precise reconstruction
  • Piezo Ultrasonic Instruments for gentle, accurate bone and tissue work

This technology allows our surgeons to restore facial structure and function with predictable results while minimizing surgical trauma and recovery time.

The CS 9300: Advanced Cone Beam CT Technology

We employ the CS 9300 Cone Beam CT system, a cutting-edge imaging tool that provides crystal-clear digital images with minimal radiation. Unlike traditional spiral CT scanners, the CS 9300 offers:

  • Adjustable field of view: Tailored to your specific treatment needs, focusing on the area of concern.
  • Enhanced visualization: Detailed 3D images aid in accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
  • Reduced radiation: Targeted imaging minimizes exposure compared to conventional methods.

This technology enables us to perform a wider range of diagnostic and surgical procedures in-office, potentially reducing the need for multiple visits.
