  Researchers found out that with the use of a 3D-CT Scan in the mouth, they will be able to create and insert a full dental implant in just one day. Before, it takes 6 months in placing the implant and its crown but now with the use of the new imaging technique the surgeon can locate the exact spot in placing the implant. Also, the patient needs two surgeries before but now they can compress it to one day. Periodontists will first use CT scans to create a 3D model of the patient’s mouth. Furthermore, using the model as a guide, the doctor will locate the exact spot in the mouth to place the implant and the crown on top, all in one, it’s really a minimal invasive surgery.
