Diagnosis is the first stage in the treatment of dental diseases. As in other areas of medicine, various methods of diagnosis are used in dental practice. Modern medical science allows obtaining accurate data with the help of a number of studies, among which radiography has been and remains the most important one.
In the Clinic of Dental Surgery of Professor Vesova the diagnosis of teeth and gums diseases, pathologies of the jaw and soft tissue is done using the latest equipment. The newest X-ray machines are absolutely safe and make it possible to find the diagnosis as precisely as possible.
This in its turn will allow the specialist to prescribe an effective treatment.
Even the slightest defects of the teeth row and tumors, such as granulomas and cysts, are displayed on the high-definition target image. To make this type of imagery, a digital X-ray system is intended. A target shot is irreplaceable during the treatment of the canals of the tooth to verify the results. 1-2 units of the teeth row are kept in one projection.
A panoramic shot is also called orthopantomogram. In the image, both jaws, tooth roots, periodontal tissue, temporomandibular joints and maxillary sinuses are visualized in detail. Diagnostics is performed on the orthopantomograph or digital tomograph. Panoramic shot is of great importance in orthodontics, maxillofacial surgery in preparation for the operation, in the process of setting dental implants, etc.
CT scan is considered the most informative and comprehensive diagnosis. The tooth-jaw system is displayed on such images in a three-dimensional form, and if necessary, a specialist on a computer screen can examine in more detail one or another area of the image. CT scan is performed before carrying out procedures and operations to monitor the effectiveness of treatment, making and clarifying diagnoses.
