CT of the mandible in JP Odonto
About the clinic
A CT of the mandible at JP Odonto in Santo André, Brazil, provides a detailed view of the jawbone and teeth. This examination helps dental surgeons plan complex procedures like implant placement and wisdom tooth extractions. The diagnostic uses computed tomography to create high-resolution images that standard X-rays cannot provide.
Diagnostic details and applications
The scan captures the structure of the jaw to identify the exact position of nerves, roots, and bone density. This data is essential for patients needing guided surgery or those with impacted teeth. The procedure typically involves:
- Virtual modeling. Specialized software processes the CT images to create a 3D model of the mandible.
- Implant planning. Surgeons use the digital model to determine the precise location and angle for dental implants.
- Wisdom tooth assessment. The scan evaluates the relationship between impacted teeth and the mandibular nerve.
- Pre-operative mapping. The images guide the surgical team during the actual procedure to improve predictability.
Expertise and technology
Dr. Denis Panhota, a dental surgeon at JP Odonto, oversees the diagnostic process and uses the results for surgical planning. The clinic utilizes dedicated dental software to transform raw scan data into actionable virtual guides. This method replaces traditional manual measurements with digital precision, especially in cases where bone volume is limited or anatomy is complex. Patients undergo the scan in a specialized setting designed for dental imaging, and the results are used to build a custom surgical plan before any physical intervention occurs.

JP Odonto: more details about the clinic
JP Odonto is a multi-specialty dental clinic in Santo André, Brazil. Founded in 2001, it has grown into a regional franchise network across São Paulo and Minas Gerais. Patients can access several dental specialties in one location.
Key Statistics and Experience
The clinic has operated for over 20 years. Specialists have treated more than 40,000 patients across all departments. Data handling follows both the Brazilian LGPD and EU GDPR frameworks. A qualified team of two primary doctors manages ongoing patient care.
Dental Specialties and Procedures
The clinic covers seven key dental areas. These include orthodontics, implantology, and pediatric dentistry. Each department follows protocols designed for safety and technical precision.
Orthodontics and Alignment
Specialists offer multiple options for teeth straightening. The clinic uses ECOALIGN, its own brand of clear aligners. These provide a transparent alternative to traditional metal braces. Patients can also choose aesthetic fixed braces for less visible treatment. The orthodontic team handles the full process from planning to completion.
Dental Implants and Prosthetics
Implantology focuses on permanent replacement of missing teeth. Surgeons use biocompatible titanium implants for high durability. With proper care, these implants can last over 20 years. The clinic offers several restoration methods:
- Single crowns and bridges supported by implants
- All-on-4 and All-on-6 full-arch rehabilitations
- Zirconia dental implants
- Overdentures supported by four implants
- Monolithic zirconia fixed dentures with 6 or 8 implants
These procedures help patients move from removable prostheses to fixed solutions.
General and Restorative Dentistry
Restorative care fixes teeth damaged by cavities or fractures. Doctors perform tooth bonding to restore function and strength. The team also manages gum and bone health. They treat periodontitis – chronic inflammation of supporting tissues. Early treatment prevents tooth mobility and loss.
Pediatric Care
The pediatric department provides specialized dental care for children. The experience helps kids feel comfortable during visits. Treatments include check-ups, cleanings, and fillings for primary teeth. Specialists focus on creating a calm environment to reduce dental anxiety.
Diagnostic Technologies
The clinic uses modern tools for treatment planning and diagnostics. These allow precise evaluation before procedures begin. The facility has several imaging systems:
- Panoramic X-ray (orthopantomogram)
- CT of the mandible for 3D imaging
- Electronic axiography to track jaw movement
- Periapical and targeted X-rays for specific tooth details
These tools support all departments, from root canal therapy to complex implant planning.
