Why periodontists & ENT-aware dental surgeons check sinuses in 3D
Successful upper-jaw bone grafting and sinus elevation depend on healthy sinus drainage, membrane thickness, and exact knowledge of bony Underwood septa inside the sinus floor.
Scan Protocol Summary
- Field of View: Ø 10×10 cm to Ø 16×10 cm Maxillary Sinus, Ostium & Alveolar Ridge FOV
- Transparent Price: $49 per scan (3D CBCT or 2D panoramic priced separately)

Schneiderian Membrane Thickening & Ostium Patency
Captures the full maxillary sinus height up to the osteomeatal complex so your surgeon or ENT can confirm clear sinus drainage prior to grafting.
Affordable $49 Follow-Up Scan After 4–6 Months of Graft Healing

SL Dental uses flagship Finnish-made Planmeca Viso® G7 3D technology
With over 50 years of Finnish dental engineering excellence, the Planmeca Viso® G7 represents the pinnacle of cone beam 3D imaging. Because our Santa Monica center is 100% dedicated to diagnostic imaging, every patient benefits from hospital-grade 3D clarity at a flat $49 price.
Planmeca Ultra Low Dose™ Protocol
Scientifically proven 3D imaging algorithms reduce effective patient radiation dose by up to 77% - often lower than a standard 2D panoramic X-ray - strictly adhering to the ALARA principle without sacrificing diagnostic detail.
Planmeca CALM™ & ARA™ Artifact Removal
Intelligent movement correction (CALM™) cancels out slight patient motion so retakes are rarely needed, while Metal Artifact Reduction (ARA™) eliminates streaks around existing crowns, bridges, and titanium implants.
