Dental Implant Cone Beam Imaging
One of the most innovative developments in modern dentistry has been the implementation of 3D cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in everyday practice. With CBCT imaging, detailed images of the jaw, teeth, nerves and other structures can be obtained to aid in diagnosis and treatment planning. In implant dentistry, 3D imaging is fast becoming the standard of care for implant surgery. At Lynnwood Periodontics & Implants we use the latest in CBCT technology to make our implant procedures as accurate, safe, and successful as possible. We are also mindful of patients exposure to radiation and only take the minimum number and size of images necessary.

Our 3D imaging software allows us to place implants with the utmost accuracy, know if bone grafting is needed, and give you a detailed plan before surgery is performed. Dr. Brancheau will review your 3D scan with you and explain all of the relevant findings so you are well informed about the procedure. A CBCT scan can also be used to create custom guides for implant placement. Every case is different, and we want to be sure we have every angle covered to give you the best treatment possible.

What People Are Saying

I met Dr. Brancheau through my regular dentist who referred me. I had a bridge break and another tooth split. I was very hesitant to get implants because of how invasive I thought they were. Day of the surgery he was very careful to make sure I felt nothing and was comfortable for both the extraction and implant. Recovery was amazing! I had almost no swelling, no pain... the horror stories you may hear are only because they saw the wrong professional! A+++

Doctor Brancheau is taking care of my second round of tooth implants. Thus I have comparison experience. I appreciate his easy touch, the fact that he communicates every step of the procedure as we go along, and that his practice doesn't try to railroad patients into up-charges. His approach to implants is such that it minimizes patient discomfort and time of process. It's my impression that he can be trusted to recommend the exact dental care needed, that it will be correct and no more involved than necessary.
