CBCT
CBCT Norlane Geelong
Dental Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is a specialised type of X-ray that provides more information than conventional dental or facial X-rays. This computerised scan uses advanced technology to generate 3D images.
Benefits of Dental CBCT Scan
Dental CBCT scan:
- Provides 3D images of dental structures, soft tissues, nerve paths and bone which is considerably more detailed than conventional two-dimensional dental X-rays.
- Allows for more accurate and precise diagnosis and treatment planning.
- Is simple and comfortable and can diagnostically image both bone and soft tissue at the same time.
Common Uses of a Dental CBCT Scan
Dental CBCT scans are used to assess the following treatment options:
- Precise placement of dental implants and tooth orientation
- Calculating the size and shape of the dental ridge
- Evaluation of the quantity and quality of the bone
- Evaluation of nasal cavity
- Finding out the need for a bone graft or sinus lift
- Surgical planning for impacted teeth
- Detecting inferior alveolar nerve position for removal of lower wisdom teeth
