Non-Edentulous
CT scanning appliance instructions
If your non-edentulous patient has metal restoration, a CT scan must be performed with a Scan Solutions Scanning Appliance as metal artifacts/restorations can cause issues in creating the surgical guide.
Step 1
Place the metal pin provided through the hole in the handle as shown. This pin will help quickly determine if the patient moved during the CT scan. Paint the device with a tray adhesive compatible with the Denmat clear bite registration material you will use in the next step.
Prepare scanning appliance
Step 2
Apply the Denmat clear bite registration material that must be used with the kit as shown. A larger amount is better than a small amount. If the bite registration material doesn’t accurately capture the occlusal surface of the teeth, repeat this step.
Apply bite registration material
Step 3
Place the device in the mouth and have the patient rest the opposing arch on cotton rolls to gently hold the device in place.
Place device back into mouth
Step 4
You are now ready for the CT scan. Follow the manufacturer’s directions for CT Scan.
