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 that includes: a panoramic curve, custom reconstructed 3D, highlighting the inferior dental canal, and image rotation according to the area of interest.

Findings:

  • The LL6 that has a root canal treatment appears to have an intact PDL space.
  • The LL6 region has a well-defined hemicircular bony nodule measuring 4 x 9 mm on the external surface of the buccal cortical plate (image 2).
  • The lesion has radiopaque layers of bone formation.
  • There are no apical radiolucencies of the LL6 or a fistula through the buccal cortical plate.
  • The lesion is probably a benign osteoma and is not associated with the LL6.
  • Another CBCT is recommended in 6 months to check for any enlargement.
