CT Scanner
at Woodford House Dental Practice in Woodford Green, Essex

We are the only the practice in the UK to have the Picasso Duo from EWOO a CT scanner specially designed for oral and maxillofacial surgeons, orthodontists and implantologists.

This advanced technology allows Dr Malik to determine whether you are a good candidate for implant surgery.

A Dental CT Scan means he will know the exact location of anatomical structures, the contours of the jaw bone, and the best sites for your implants before surgery.

What does a CT Scan do?

By providing detailed two-dimensional and three dimensional images, CT Scans enable us to select the best place for your implants and plan the details of your surgery with pinpoint accuracy.

How does a CT Scan differ from conventional X-rays?
Dental X-rays can often become distorted and they cannot depict the thickness of your jawbone. They are two-dimensional and only show the location of your teeth and the height of the bone.

On the other hand, a CT Scan is distortion free. It illustrates the actual make-up of the bone and pro- vides three-dimensional and cross-sectional views of your jaws. This allows us to accurately measure the amount of bone that is available for implants.

What will happen to me during the CT scan?
All that you have to do is to rest your face on the CT scanner chin rest. Your head will be comfortably cushioned.
Keeping still for those few minutes that the scan takes, is very important so that clear pictures are obtained.
