Digital X-Ray and Dental Imaging in New York with i-CAT Scans

The i-CAT scanner offers the highest quality images and most complete information - with 0.01mm accuracy - on the anatomy of a patient's mouth, face, and jaw areas. This precision leads to the most accurate diagnosis, treatment plan, and predictable outcomes for oral and facial surgical procedures. Additionally, i-CAT is less costly and uses significantly lower radiation doses than traditional, hospital-based CTs. By assessing the anatomy of your jaw, the i-CAT- in-office CAT scanner helps our oral surgeons to successfully place dental implants and perform oral surgery.

Our patients prefer the i-CAT scanner because of its convenience and comfort. Patients are seated in an open environment, while the i-CAT scanner captures the natural orientation of your anatomy. Within a few minutes, the data is transferred to a computer and displayed on an interactive 3-D mapping tool that allows our oral surgeons to easily format and select desired regions for immediate viewing. These detailed images help our oral surgeons diagnose medical problems earlier and more efficiently.
