Dr. Charles A. White, Periodontist in Rogers AR, specializes in Computer Guided Dental Implants

COMPUTER GUIDED DENTAL IMPLANTS
State-of-the-art tooth replacement

PRECISION PLACEMENT · LESS INVASIVE
MAXIMUM SAFETY · MINIMUM DISCOMFORT

The use of Computerized Tomography (CT Scans) combined with specialized Simplant computer software provide a huge advancement in implant dentistry. Simplant software allows Dr. White to evaluate each potential implant site on a computer to ensure that the site is ready for implant placement.

Computer guided placement of dental implants provides maximum safety to avoid nerves, sinuses and other vital structures and maximum accuracy in implant placement within the bone. Dr. White has been placing computer guided dental implants since 2005 and has found this process to be extremely beneficial to his patients.

These images show a treatment plan for three dental implants in the lower jaw developed using Simplant Computer Software after obtaining a CT scan:

The 3D image shows the proper alignment of the implants with the desired restorations (in yellow).
The implants are planned with precision to have: 1) proper alignment to support implant crowns, 2) proper spacing between implants and between implants and adjacent teeth, 3) adequate bone to support each implant and 4) a safe distance between each implant and vital structures like the mandibular nerve (shown in orange below the implants). Note in these cross section images that implants are precisely placed to avoid bone undercuts.
