Welcome to MOSA Oral Maxillofacial & Dental Implant Surgery, where advanced technology meets compassionate care. Our team of experienced oral surgeons, Dr. Lewis, Dr. Lloyd, and Dr. LaMothe, is dedicated to providing superior care to our patients. All our offices are equipped with state-of-the-art 3D imaging technology, digital X-rays, digital impressions, intraoral scanners, and guided implant placement to ensure safe and precise oral surgery procedures.

Benefits of 3D Scans

3D CT scanning generates higher detailed images over other forms of imaging, which benefits surgeons and patients alike. Whether a patient is undergoing a simple, routine procedure, or an advanced course of treatment for a complex issue, the benefits of 3D imaging are undeniable and include:

  • Increased accuracy in images, which reduces any surprises or complications that can occur during a procedure
  • Allows the oral surgeon to plan the treatment and create any custom-made surgical guides or molds for the specific procedure
  • Permits the oral surgeon to share digital scans with a general dentist or physician quickly and easily
  • Decrease in exposure to radiation as compared to typical X-rays

How 3D Scans Help in Oral Surgery

Our surgeons may use 3D imaging to create custom surgical guides for implant placement, to assess the position of impacted wisdom teeth, map out the new position of the jaw before orthognathic surgery, and much more! Taking the guesswork out of surgery allows our team to provide a safer treatment experience and execute the surgery with greater precision.
