The four things people come for
An implant where a tooth is gone. A fixed arch where most of a row is gone, carried on four to six implants rather than one per tooth. A denture, removable, for an arch or a run of teeth. An extraction, planned together with whatever replaces the tooth.
Why the scan leads
A cone beam CT scan is a type of computerized tomography that shows a 3D image of your jaw’s anatomy. It shows where the bone can hold a fixture and where it cannot, and for a full arch it decides how many fixtures are needed and where each goes. It is taken before any surgery is scheduled.
For patients coming in from the islands that ordering matters twice over, because it means the whole course of treatment is mapped at the start rather than revised appointment by appointment.

St. Pete Beach dental questions
How is a fixed arch different from a denture?
A fixed arch is carried on four to six implants in the bone and stays in the mouth. A denture is removable. Both replace a whole row of teeth.
Does the whole plan get set at the first visit?
The consult and the scan between them settle what the bone can carry and what each option involves, so the course of treatment is mapped at the start rather than revised as it goes.
