syngo Dental CT
This is an application package for reformatting pan-
oramic views and paraxial slices through the upper and
lower jaw. It enables the display and measurement of
the bone structures of the upper and lower jaw (espe
-
cially for a 1:1 scale) as the basis for oral surgery plan-
ning.
The Basics
What is the relevant anatomical information for oral
surgery planning and dental implantation?
• Location of the socket for dental implant.
• Buccal and lingual thickness of the cortical compo-
nent of the alveolar process.
• Position of the mandibular canal and the mental
foramen.
• Extent of the nasal sinuses and position and width of
the floor of the nasal cavity.
What can syngo Dental CT do?
• Reformatting of a curvilinear range of panoramic
views along the jaw bone.
• Reformatting of paraxial views of selectable length
and at selectable intervals perpendicular to the pan-
oramic views.
• Presentation of results in the form of multiple image
display with reference markings.
• Images are documented on film in "real-size" so that
the direct measurement of the anatomic information
with a ruler is possible. The layout of the film sheet is
predefined such that it can accommodate the maxi
-
mum number of reformatted images.
