Oral CT Scans are available in
QualityPlant's dental practices
 The oral CT evaluates and analyzes critical anatomy for IMPLANTS AND ORAL SURGERY within minutes. It is an x-ray procedure which combines many x-ray images with the aid of a computer to generate cross-sectional views and, if needed, three-dimensional images of the internal organs and structures of the body or mouth in dental cases.
Imagine your mouth as a loaf of bread and you are looking at one end of the loaf. As you remove each slice of bread, you can see the entire surface of that slice from the crust to the centre. The mouth is seen on CT scan slices in a similar fashion from the gum to the teeth being examined. When these levels are further "added" together, a three-dimensional picture of an oral structure can be obtained. CT scanning is painless.
CT determines more precise tooth position then a simple X-ray to visualize impaction within the alveolar bone, location relative to adjacent teeth, and proximity to vital structures, such as the nerve canal, sinus walls, and cortical borders.
Precise, cross-sectional slices of any desired location in the maxilla (upper jaw) or mandible (lower jaw) provide exact anatomical information, including dimensions and locations. 3-D images assist in determining if bone grafting or sinus lift is justified in areas of insufficient bone for the implant procedure.
Easter in HungaryThere are a lot of interesting folk customs still alive all over Hungary. Many of them are connected with religious holidays, while others have older origins, from early, sometimes from prehistoric years. The two, most known customs of Easter are the "sprinkling" and the egg-painting. Both are very common in both urban and rural areas, among people of every age-group.
Sprinkling
The old tradition is shown on the first two pictures. These photos here show  folk costumes that people wear just for special occasions today. Today women wear casual dresses for sprinkling, not folk costumes. Also, men sprinkle with cologne, not with water. A couple of decades ago men poured water on women in rural areas and women changed their clothes after each sprinkling. Boys often dragged girls to the well and poured water on them with pail. Sometimes they washed them in creek.The possible reason for this very old tradition is that people believed in the cleaning, healing and fertility effect of water.
Easter is a 2-day holiday in Hungary. On Monday boys and men visit all of their women relatives, friends, neighbours, often even if they are not close friends. Boys in small groups, fathers with their sons, or single men leave early in the morning and their "tour" last all day long. They greet girls and women with shorter - longer poems (mostly with a funny poem about "Eastern sprinkling") and sprinkle them with cologne. Women must be well-prepared, they treat men with dessert and beverages - and with hand-painted eggs. Women usually prepare in the previous days by cleaning up the house thoroughly, decorating, cooking and painting a couple dozen eggs.
Egg painting
 There are many different painting methods alive. The simplest way is to cook the egg enveloped into a dented leaf, in painting water. The covered part of the egg remains white and will show the pattern of the leaf. Painting liquid can be made from onion skin, wild pear, green walnut or other vegetables yielding different natural colours. Sometimes women "write the egg". They draw folk patterns on the egg by melted wax and put the eggs into painting after this. The egg remains white below the wax and will show the pattern. But the most beautiful eggs are painted by hand with different colours following traditional folk patterns.
