Co-Diagnosis and Treatment Planning

The treatment planning video gives a real life Comprehensive Assessment being conducted with a patient who has been recommended for implant dentistry. Dr. Daniel K. Marinic explains the scan images to the dental patient. The scans were generated by the Galileos Cone Beam scanner.

As Dr. Daniel K. Marinic progresses in the consultation, the patient learns, first hand, jawbone integrity issues in different areas of the jawbone. The dental patient also discovers that an area of chronic jawbone pain is caused by a tooth root that was left in the mandible years before.

Bone grafting needs are discussed. The 1 hour Dental Patient Comprehensive Consult was edited for content and time, resulting in a 5 minute video that provides a summary version of the learning experiences of participating in Dr. Marinic's "Co-Diagnosis" activities that involve the patient during the entire diagnostic and planning phases of treatment.
