The Calabasas Dental Institute™, the only full service dental practice and clinical research facility of its kind in Southern California, is pleased to announce our recent acquisition of the new Kodak 9000 3D Imaging System providing unmatched imaging technology for exacting, evidence-based dentistry.
The Calabasas Dental Institute is the only dental office in the San Fernando Valley, California currently using the Kodak 9000 CT Imaging System.
Three-dimensional digital imaging provides highly detailed pictures that show actual
representations of the patient’s tooth anatomy that can be viewed from any direction. Using
this modality, anatomical depth and relationships between individual features can be
precisely identified and measured for more accurate diagnoses and treatment.
Imagine; The Kodak Imaging System used by the Calabasas Dental Institute means the complete elimination of all dental film and chemistry from the office. The system reduces radiation and provides an extraordinary new level of increased patient satisfaction with 3D images revealing even the smallest and hardest-to-find problems.
The state-of-the-
"Our patients receive the most accurate diagnosis of their individual situation available," Dr. Rubin said. "Imagine every tooth in your mouth being under a high-powered microscope. We can now see abnormalities less than a millimeter in size and provide a comprehensive diagnosis so every patient can see what the problem is with their own eyes."
Traditional film-based dental x-rays do not reveal the details now available by using the new digital imaging system. In many cases, dentists without digital imaging can miss important identifiers in the patient's case, leading to more complications if not addressed.
There are other benefits using this technology. Because the Kodak 9000 3D System's ability to provide a localized field of view, it dramatically reduces radiation when compared to other dental 3D systems.
There are two different views available using the Kodak Imaging system;
Focused-field 3D imaging - which reveals anatomically correct three-dimensional images directly onscreen.
Panoramic imaging – which produces complete dentition overview—a crucial first step before treatment.
As the only dental research and practice facility in the San Fernando Valley with the Kodak 9000 CT Imaging System, (including Santa Clarita and Ventura), The Calabasas Dental Institute can assist patients who demand a more robust diagnostic tool.
The technology offered by the Calabasas Dental Institute resolves hard-to-solve dental problems including dental implants and cosmetic veneers for smile enhancement.
