An Intro to CBCT Diagnosis and Treatment Planning for General Dentists: Not Just for Implants! (Hands-On) with Dr. Scott Ganz & Dr. Kenneth Feiler

An Intro to CBCT Diagnosis and Treatment Planning for General Dentists: Not Just for Implants! (Hands-On) with Dr. Scott Ganz & Dr. Kenneth Feiler is organized by New Jersey Health Professionals Development Institute (NJHPDI) and will be held on Jan 22, 2027 at New Jersey Health Professionals Development Institute, River Edge, New Jersey, United States of America.

Course Description:
The purpose of this program will be to aid clinicians to achieve successful diagnosis and treatment planning for a wide variety of clinical findings that can only be clearly visualized utilizing advanced CBCT imaging modalities.

Two-dimensional imaging modalities provide clinicians with certain important information regarding patient anatomy and potential pathology but fall short when compared to state-of-the-art three-dimensional imaging provided through Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT).

The ability to assess anatomic structures with advanced software applications greatly enhances the clinician’s ability to assess:

• bone and soft tissue
• root canal lesions
• impacted teeth
• periodontal disease
• sinus pathology
• bony defects
• biopsies
• planning for dental implants
• and much more!

This course will help clinicians understand the world of 3-D imaging, helping to navigate through the basic software and augment and enhance the diagnostic capabilities with 3rd party software.

Merging of ancillary technologies such as intraoral scanning, and advanced bone and tooth segmentation will be discussed in terms of aiding in the definitive diagnosis and execution of planned treatment through live patient scans that will be completed during the program.

Hands-on will cover:

• Understanding the information obtained from 3-D imaging vs 2-D imaging modalities
• How to navigate through the many different views that are possible with CBCT imaging and interactive treatment planning software
• Evaluating CBCT findings for periodontal disease, endodontic treatment, impacted teeth, cystic lesions, sinus pathology, planning for dental implants and much more.
• How to put together graphical representations for patient communications and colorful treatment plans.
