In this episode of Oral Surgery Insights, Dr. Russ Lieblick and Dr. Brandon Rehrer explore how 3D imaging—specifically Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT)—has revolutionized dental implant planning and patient safety.They explain why traditional 2D panoramic X-rays, while still useful, can’t provide the complete picture needed for complex implant cases. Using powerful analogies and real-world examples, they break down how CBCT gives surgeons a precise, three-dimensional view of a patient’s jawbone—allowing for accurate measurements, better treatment planning, and the ability to identify critical structures like the inferior alveolar nerve before surgery even begins.You’ll learn: Why 3D imaging is considered the new gold standard for implant dentistry How CBCT scans improve accuracy, predictability, and long-term outcomes The role of bone quality and width in implant success How advanced imaging enhances communication and trust between surgeon and patientWhether you’re a dental professional, a patient considering implants, or simply curious about cutting-edge technology in oral surgery, this episode will give you a clear understanding of why 3D imaging is a game-changer.
