Precision 3D CT Scanning for Dentistry
Our dental office utilizes advanced 3D cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) technology to obtain detailed 3D images of your mouth's bone and tooth structures. This advanced imaging supports superior diagnosis, treatment planning, and outcomes.
What is Conebeam CT?
Conebeam CT is a specialized type of 3D x-ray imaging for dentistry. A machine rotates around the head capturing multiple x-ray images that a computer converts into a 3D model. It provides clear, high-resolution views of the jaws, teeth, nerves, and bone.
Benefits of Conebeam CT Scans
Conebeam CT offers many benefits over traditional dental x-rays:
- Provides 3D view vs standard x-ray's 2D image
- Clearly images complex tooth anatomy and bone structure
- Enables detailed measurement and mapping of anatomy
- Exposes patients to significantly less radiation
- Supports minimally invasive precision procedures
- Aids in accurate diagnoses of issues
- Useful for complex treatment planning
