See your 3D scan, no software needed
🔒 Your scan is opened only inside your browser. It is never uploaded and nothing is saved on our servers.
Got a CD or a download from your dentist or imaging centre? Open it here and look at your own scan in three views and in 3D, with the same tools clinicians use.
Drop your scan here
a folder, a .zip file, DICOM files, or iCAT/Xoran .xstd files
- Put the CD in your computer and find the folder (often called
DICOMorIMAGES), or use the download link you received. - Drop the folder here. You do not need to open or sort the files.
- Look around. Scroll to move through the scan, drag to rotate the 3D view, measure with the ruler.
No scan at hand? Learn with the sample
A teaching CT of a head with teeth, jaws, sinuses and one dental implant. It is made by this page and is not a real person.
The download is a real DICOM study (160 slices, about 3 MB). Use it to practise the steps above exactly as you would with a CD from your dentist, or open it in any other viewer.
- Find the implant. Open the sample, press Teeth in the Image panel, and scroll through the axial view (top left) until you see a bright circle in the lower jaw, on the right of the picture (the letter L: the patient's left). Switch to the coronal view: the screw, the post on top and the crown are all there.
- Measure it. Pick the Ruler, click the top and the bottom of the screw in the coronal view. The length shows in millimetres. Try the width too.
- Look at the bone. Press Bone. The bright outer shell is the hard cortical bone; the grey inside is the spongy bone an implant sits in. The dark tube running along the lower jaw below the back teeth is the nerve canal, which an implant must keep clear of.
- Soft tissue and air. Press Soft tissue and scroll up: the dark pockets above the upper back teeth are the sinuses. Airway shows the breathing path behind the mouth.
- See it in 3D. In the 3D view choose Teeth & metal: the implant, the crowns and one filling stand out. Drag to turn the head, use Bone to see both jaws.
A real scan looks noisier and less tidy than this one. The tools work the same way.
