What
does a typical image package cost?
We charge $375 per arch (upper or lower). Special
formatting, such as NOBELGUIDE™ and SimPlant
applications, add additional
costs.
Is the cost covered by insurance?
Many medical insurers
do cover CAT scans.
What are the advantages
of using this type of scan and image?
Anatomy we
used to guess at is now visible. Practicing
with this image-guided technology gives entirely
new vision and accuracy to diagnosis and treatment.
How fast and by
what means do you share the images with the referring doctor?
A
photo-quality image and, if requested, a CD
containing images, is mailed to the patient’s
referring dentist, dental specialist or doctor
within a few days of the scan being taken.
How long would a patient typically have to spend at CMI to
have images taken?
Scans take
no more than five minutes, total. We
do everything possible to ensure minimal wait
time in our office.
Does your imaging ever detect unexpected pathology in a patient?
Unrelated findings and
pathology seen in scans are often commonplace. For
instance, we have detected latent sinus disease
in a large number of our scanned patients.
