Modern Imaging and Digital Tools for Precision Oral Surgery
Advanced Dental Technology in Silverdale, WA
At Kitsap Oral, Maxillofacial & Dental Implant Surgery, we utilize the most advanced imaging and planning technologies in oral and maxillofacial care. From CBCT imaging to 3D printing, our digital tools allow for safer, faster, and more precise treatments. These innovations are integrated into procedures like dental implants, jaw surgery, tooth extractions, and full-arch restorations.
Technology That Enhances Surgical Precision
Advanced digital tools enable us to plan treatment with exceptional detail. By visualizing bone, nerve, and soft tissue structures in 3D, we’re able to avoid complications, reduce healing time, and improve outcomes. We also share these digital assets with referring providers via our referring providers portal, ensuring collaborative care throughout every case.
3D Facial Scanning for Surgical Planning
3D facial scanning creates a digital model of your facial structure, making it ideal for cosmetic surgery, trauma care, and full-arch restorations. It helps simulate surgical outcomes.
- Fast and contactless
- High-resolution digital model
- Supports facial balance and symmetry
- Used in rhinoplasty and orthognathic surgery planning
Our surgeons—Dr. Sukhdeep Dhaliwal and Dr. Douglas Baasch—leverage this technology to design fully customized surgical approaches based on each patient’s unique anatomy.

Digital Scanning for Impressions and Surgical Guides
Digital scanning replaces traditional impressions with a clean, efficient process. Using an intraoral scanner, we capture detailed 3D images of your teeth, gums, and bite. This data helps us create surgical guides, restorations, and treatment plans with extreme accuracy.
- Used in dental implant design and placement
- Helps plan bone grafting and surgical extractions
- Improves comfort by avoiding impression trays
- Enhances coordination with dental labs
We store all scan data securely and can use it to monitor changes in your dental anatomy over time.
CBCT Scanning (Cone Beam CT)
Our in-office CBCT scanner captures 3D images of the jaw, nerves, sinuses, and teeth with exceptional clarity and minimal radiation. This is a key diagnostic tool for almost every surgical procedure we perform.
CBCT is essential for:
- Evaluating wisdom teeth
- Diagnosing pathology, cysts, or tumors
- Planning for jaw surgery or trauma treatment
- Safely placing dental implants
With real-time 3D diagnostics, we can perform safer, faster procedures and minimize risk to critical structures such as nerves and sinuses.

In-House 3D Printing for Precision Appliances
We use high-resolution 3D printers to manufacture surgical guides, implant models, and temporary restorations right in our office. This accelerates treatment timelines and enhances clinical accuracy.
Common applications:
- Custom guides for All-on-4 full-arch implant surgery
- Temporaries used during full-arch restorations
- Models for oral pathology cases
- Physical planning for facial trauma
3D printing also improves communication, allowing patients to see and understand their surgical plan in detail.

FAQs About Our Dental Technology
What is the benefit of 3D facial scanning?
It allows our surgeons to model your facial anatomy digitally, improving the accuracy of cosmetic or reconstructive procedures.
How is CBCT different from a traditional dental X-ray?
CBCT provides a 3D view of your entire jaw and facial structure, not just a 2D snapshot. This is critical for identifying anatomical risks and planning complex procedures.
Is digital scanning more comfortable than impressions?
Yes. Digital scanning is non-invasive and avoids the discomfort and gagging often associated with impression trays.
Can 3D printed guides improve dental implant accuracy?
Absolutely. Surgical guides produced from digital scans ensure implants are placed at the correct angle and depth, reducing complications.
Are these technologies used for all patients?
Whenever appropriate, yes. We integrate digital tools into most of our oral surgery and dental implant cases.
