Jacksonville Dental Practice Now Using Cone-Beam Imaging for Implant Treatments

October 27, 2014 - Jacksonville, FL - Dr. Jose Martinez is pleased to announce that his dental practice is now using i-Cat cone-beam imaging for their dental implant procedures. The new safer technology helps create precise diagnosis and develop exact treatment plans.

"Our practice always tries to stay at the forefront of technology," Dr. Martinez said. "We do this to provide the best service to our patients."

Cone-beam imaging allows dentists to see computer-generated views of teeth, bones, and other details from any angle in 3D and in color. The i-Cat technology helps diagnose problems and place implants more accurately than with traditional radiographs.

"The best part of i-Cat is that it's very fast and completely painless," Dr. Martinez added. "After just a quick scan, we are able to see so much more than we used to."

Southpoint Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry has been serving the Jacksonville community for several years, primarily with the same staff, and Dr. Martinez says there is a reason for that. Patients located in the Jacksonville area have access to state-of-the-art dental examinations given by dentists who want the best for every patient. As technology advances, there is an increasing awareness of the connection between oral health and physical health. Several internal diseases will show signs and symptoms within the mouth such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. The i-Cat cone-beam imaging device is used by Dr. Martinez to inspect a patient's teeth and gums and for overall optimum health prevention.

"The very little turnaround we have on our staff shows our consistency and also how committed we all are to providing our patients with optimal care." Dr. Martinez proudly added.
