Allows you to plan your patient’s treatment easily, with a full implant library and free virtual implant placement capabilities. Our clinical team will prepare a study for you that includes: panoramic curve, custom reconstructed 3D, highlighting the inferior dental canal and image rotation according to the area of interest.

Findings:

UR8 has external resorption of the crown, is unerupted, vertically impacted against the adjacent tooth with root/apices touching the sinus cavity. Normal follicle space with no erosion of adjacent distal root. UL8 is unerupted, vertically orientated with no adjacent tooth and the root/apices touching the sinus cavity. The follicle space is enlarged (> 3 mm) (image 1).

A panoramic radiograph is suggested in 12 months to confirm no increase in follicle size.

UR6 crown is missing. UR5 crown is missing with a retained root filled root (image 2). UR3,2, UL3 crowns are missing or abraded.

UR4 is root treated with widening of the apical periodontal ligament space of the buccal root. UL6 crown is missing with possibly a fracture through the root trifurcation. No apical radiolucencies (image 3).

The remaining teeth have mild to moderate localized alveolar bone loss due to periodontal disease.

The floor of the right maxillary sinus demonstrates mild generalized mucosal thickening. The left maxillary sinus is clear but missing part of the medial wall (image 4).

The Left Fossa of Rosenmüller of the Nasopharynx is occluded. Review by an ENT surgeon is recommended to rule out pathology.
