Dental CBCT & Maxillofacial CBCT

Dental CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) and Maxillofacial CBCT are advanced imaging techniques used in dental and maxillofacial fields to provide detailed 3D images of the teeth, jaw, and facial structures. Unlike traditional X-rays, CBCT scans produce a comprehensive view, enabling dentists and oral surgeons to diagnose conditions with higher accuracy and plan treatments effectively.

Dental CBCT

Dental CBCT focuses on imaging the teeth and surrounding oral structures. It is particularly useful for:

  • Implant Planning: Provides a detailed view of bone quality, volume, and structure to ensure the accurate placement of dental implants.
  • Endodontics: Assists in locating root canals and detecting fractures or other complications that traditional X-rays might miss.
  • Orthodontics: Helps in assessing tooth position and jaw alignment, supporting the planning of braces or other orthodontic treatments.
  • Impacted Teeth: Allows for the visualization of impacted wisdom teeth or other teeth, aiding in surgical planning.
  • TMJ Disorders: Evaluates the temporomandibular joint for conditions affecting jaw function.

Maxillofacial CBCT

Maxillofacial CBCT provides comprehensive imaging of the facial skeleton, including the jaw, sinus cavities, and nasal structures. It is used in:

  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery: Assists in the planning of complex surgeries, such as reconstructive surgery, trauma management, and removal of cysts or tumors.
  • Sinus Evaluation: Helps identify issues with sinus structure and detect sinusitis or other complications.
  • Orthognathic Surgery: Aids in the diagnosis and surgical correction of jaw deformities to improve facial appearance and function.
  • Sleep Apnea: Evaluates airway structures to diagnose sleep apnea and plan treatment.
