One of the state-of-the-art technologies featured here at Rockland Pediatric Dental and Orthodontics is CBCT scanning. This advanced imaging technology gives us a more comprehensive view of your teeth, mouth and other orofacial structures, ensuring that you receive accurate diagnoses and the most precise and effective care possible.
What Is CBCT Scanning?
CBCT scanning, also known as cone beam imaging, is a type of imaging technology that provides our doctors and team with a three-dimensional reconstruction of your teeth, mouth, jaws, neck, nose and airway. The view provided by 3D CBCT imaging is more comprehensive than that provided by standard digital X-rays, making it highly effective in diagnosing and evaluating a number of dental conditions as well as planning your treatments.
When Is CBCT Scanning Used?
CBCT scanning is commonly used to:
- Plan dental implant placement
- Evaluate the jaws and face
- View the head and neck as a comprehensive whole
