iCam


Mountain State Oral & Facial Surgery solves the problem of multi-unit implant issues with the iCam4D in-office scanning service. By utilizing a combination of photogrammetric and structured light scanning techniques, iCam4D is able to capture precise 3D data.

The positioning and orientation of the implants are determined using special scan bodies called iCamBodies, which are equipped with 3D coding.

Once the dental scans are completed, the results will be sent to the dental lab. The data will include precise angles, distances, and positions of the implants, with an accuracy range of 10 to 15 microns. This scanning system is compatible with all standard multi-unit abutments, making it a versatile tool for any splinted implant case. It’s particularly well-suited for large-span implant-supported dentures or bridges.

Benefits for the Patient


No stress due to the taking of the impressions. The iCam4D system is fast and comfortable when compared to traditional methods.
Try-ins are eliminated because parts will fit perfectly.
Improved comfort of the patient due to the improved quality of the fit of the final restoration.
Possibility of shorter treatment times as early load protocols are much more feasible.

Benefits for the Clinician


With an accuracy of 10 to 15 microns, the fit is perfect eliminating re-tries.
Passive fit of the framework diminishes the need for prosthesis adjustments.
Significant savings in chair time due to the ease of placing the scan bodies and the relatively quick scan time.
Possibility of having a fully digital workflow.
Predictable outcome.
Elimination of costs for impression materials used in taking conventional impressions on multi-implants.



Digital X-rays


A dental x-ray is an essential diagnostic tool for any oral surgeon. In the past, x-rays required film slides, complete with a long and tedious development process. These days, we use digital x-rays due to their numerous advantages over traditional methods.

Digital x-rays omit up to 90% less radiation than a film x-ray. They also allow us to magnify or manipulate the image to gain a more comprehensive overview of your oral structures. Without the film development process, we can retake an x-ray instantly and share them electronically, all without affecting the environment.

3D Cone Beam


When a digital x-ray fails to provide enough information, our doctors may order a cone beam CT scan. A CBCT scan is another form of digital radiography that gives us an even more detailed look at your oral and maxillofacial structures. With CBCT scans, we get a 3D representation of your teeth, bone, gums, and other soft tissues.

CBCT scans allow us to better determine the root cause of a symptom or problem. They also allow us to develop more precise surgical plans for dental implants, tooth extractions, bone grafting, gum grafting, and many other restorative procedures. In other words, CBCT and 3D imaging have revolutionized the way we perform oral surgery.

X-Guide Dynamic 3D Navigation


The X-Guide Dynamic 3D Navigation system works in unison with cone beam 3D imagery to give us a live video overlay not only of your jaw, bone, and teeth but our drilling tools in relation to them. The X-Guide shows us the exact angle, depth, and placement of every action we take in your mouth in real time. This gives us the ability to precisely control the placement of every implant procedure we perform.
