Digital 3D Cone Beam CT
Dentistry is evolving day by day, and newer technologies are helping dentists to make accurate and detailed diagnoses. Sometimes conventional X Rays or 2D imaging techniques do not provide a clear image. So, in order to have a better field of view, your dentist might recommend you for a CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography).
Let’s learn more about it.
Let’s learn more about it.
What is CBCT (cone beam computed tomography)?
A digital 3D Cone Beam CT or CBCT is a new alternative to the 2D dental imaging technique. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a type of medical imaging that uses x-rays to create three-dimensional images of the body. CBCT scans use a large cone-shaped radiation beam to produce detailed images of internal organs and structures.
What are the Indications of a Digital 3D Cone Beam CT?
● Planning dental implant surgery
● To assess the results of dental procedures such as in implant osseointegration processes or for evaluation of endodontically treated teeth.
● Evaluation of extension oral pathologies such as cysts or any bony lesions.
● To check the bone quality.
● Evaluation of the Temporomandibular joint.
● Airway visualization.
What are the Benefits of a Digital 3D Cone Beam CT?
CBCT can help identify problems with the teeth and jaws that might not be visible on traditional x-rays.
It provides high-resolution images of the teeth, jawbone, and other structures in the mouth.
It provides less exposure to radiation as compared to CT scans.
The resulting image can be manipulated and rotated on the computer screen for optimal viewing from almost any angle.
With CBCT, we can gain a full 360-degree view of your teeth and jaws which traditional 2D X-ray simply cannot offer.
