New York City dentist uses digital technologies combined with surgical skills to visualize the end result for patients before implant treatment begins.
New York, NY (PRWEB) September 16, 2009 -- David Binder, D.D.S., the "Manhattan Dentist," uses digital X-ray, implant simulation and modeling software combined with surgical skills and training to create the end result before any treatment begins. Patients can see what their dental implants will look like in their mouths and understand the degree of surgery required before any dental treatment begins. A patient can have the look of their current simile or enhance the shape, color, and alignment of the dental implants to achieve their desired results.
Dr David Binder, the "Manhattan Dentist" is an assistant clinical professor at NYU College of Dentistry. He teaches dental students how to design implant treatment plans from the final restoration backwards.
The success of dental implants is well documented today at well over 90%. It's not whether implants work but can they achieve both functional and esthetic results that restore hard and soft tissues. The vision of the final implant supported bridge, denture and crown should be determined before an implant or implants are placed.
A mock up in wax of the final restoration is used to evaluate face, lip support, smile, speech and overall esthetics. From these prosthetic trials in conjunction with digital analysis, implant placement is determined. Digital treatment planning provides total control for implant restorative success.
The use of digital technologies such as CAT scan or cone beam x-ray scans, Radiographic stents, 3D imaging surgical planning software, surgical guides, and 3D models allow Dr. Binder to better
