Field of view refers to the area of the anatomy that is captured by the CBCT scan. Most practitioners placing dental implants are interested in acquiring data from the maxilla and mandible. The standard fields of view can be used to capture the temporomandibular joint complex, the paranasal sinuses, as well as the maxilla and mandible…

Mini Dental Implants (MDI’s) represent another stage in the development of implant dentistry. MDI’s are narrower than conventional dental implants and offer many unique advantages.
