[Online Webinar Series] 3D Imaging is Becoming the Standard of Care

3D Imaging Lecture --> Part 1 of 5

Hosted by Henry Schein Dental

2D vs 3D in orthodontics. With the advent of easy access to 3D over the past decade, our ability to diagnose and treatment plan has forever changed for those who have embraced it. Although 2D records may allow an orthodontist to provide treatment, 3D records allow more sophisticated treatment planning, and more importantly allow us to readily evaluate treatment responses and treatment results in all planes of space.

3D Imaging has changed the way we look at cases. However, many feel it should be used only on very specific cases and otherwise is of no value over a traditional Panorex and lateral ceph. In this webinar, Dr. Krieger will review cases and show why 3D imaging has not only become an indispensable part of the traditional exam, but how it has uncovered issues, in routine cases, that has helped him treat patients more efficiently and more completely.

Glenn Krieger, DDS, FAGD

Dr. Krieger graduated dental school in 1992 and moved to Seattle in 1996, where he established a solo boutique restorative practice. Having drawn upon a lifelong love of photography, Dr. Krieger sought out the best resources to help him understand the basics of excellent clinical photography. With the arrival of digital technology in the photographic world, Dr. Krieger merged his knowledge of traditional photographic technique with the advantages of digital cameras. The result was the revolutionary “Digital Co-Diagnosis™” process, where patients play a much larger role in their dental health choices through better education. The cornerstone of this process is exceptional clinical photography.

Dr. Krieger has presented to thousands of dentists in North America and has been published in textbooks and dental periodicals. Dentistry Today has named him “Top Clinician in Continuing Education” 10 times.

Why is 2D not enough? Because it doesn’t allow appropriate evaluation of important anatomical structures needed for proper diagnostics and treatment planning. The importance of CBCT use for orthodontics purposes is found in the following areas: Anterior/Posterior tooth movement, Transverse tooth movement, Alveolar housing considerations during alignment, TSAD location evaluation, and Orthognathic surgical planning. Airway, superimpositions, TMJ, tooth morphology, and oral pathology are other areas where CBCT is beneficial and these will be discussed as well.

The emergence of COVID-19 has brought new challenges and potential liabilities to dental professionals in regards to spatter, spray, and aerosols production. Dental literature shows that many procedures produce aerosols and droplets that can be contaminated with bacteria and represent a potential route for disease transmission. There have been several devices created to decrease airborne contamination by reducing the number of aerosols and spatter, but proper practice controls are critical. Michelle will discuss these standard precautions and how to make your practice safer upon your return.
