A dental CT scan, also known as a Cone Beam CT (CBCT), is an advanced imaging technology that provides a detailed, 3D view of your teeth, jaw, and surrounding structures. Unlike traditional X-rays, which give a flat, two-dimensional image, a CT scan captures the full anatomy of your mouth, allowing dentists to see bones, nerves, sinuses, and soft tissues with remarkable clarity.
CT scans are especially useful for complex dental procedures, including implant planning, orthodontics, wisdom tooth assessment, root canal evaluation, and detecting jaw abnormalities or pathology. The detailed 3D images help your dentist plan treatment with precision, reducing risks and improving outcomes.
The procedure is quick, non-invasive, and painless. During the scan, you simply sit or stand while the machine rotates around your head, capturing images in seconds. Advanced software then reconstructs these images into a 3D model, allowing your dentist to examine every angle and make fully informed treatment decisions.
By using dental scans, we can ensure safer, faster, and more effective care. Whether you’re preparing for dental implants, evaluating complex cases, or needing accurate diagnostic imaging, CT technology provides the clarity and confidence necessary for successful treatment and a healthy smile.
