Oral surgeons recognize that stents can be used in a variety of ways to help them successfully treat their patients. Stents are often considered a CT appliance, because they can be used in conjunction with a CAT scan during a surgical procedure to help a surgeon properly place an implant.

Surgeons also rely on clear acrylic stents for use during a surgery or a CAT scan procedure. What’s more, CT stents can help to stabilize a patient after surgery as well as protect implant sites. Surgeons often use a CT appliance to protect open wounds from infection and to control bleeding.
