If you’re looking for reliable dental care, our 57 Dental & Implant Centre is happy to help. We are proud to provide our patients with the latest cutting-edge technology, including a CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) scan, which can give our dentists a detailed 3D image of your mouth to help diagnose and treat a variety of dental and oral health issues.
An implant CT scan is an advanced 3D imaging technique used to plan dental implant treatment with accuracy and confidence. Unlike standard dental X-rays, a CT scan provides a detailed three-dimensional view of your jawbone, surrounding teeth, nerves, and sinuses. This allows the dentist to assess bone quality and volume, identify the safest implant position, and avoid important anatomical structures during the procedure.
CBCT scanning offers a number of benefits for both patients and dental professionals. Some of these benefits include:
CBCT scanning allows for a more accurate and comprehensive diagnosis of dental conditions, including cavities, infections, and fractures.
With detailed 3D images of the patient’s dental anatomy, dental professionals can develop more effective treatment plans that are tailored to the patient’s individual needs.
While traditional dental X-rays require multiple exposures, CBCT scanning uses a low dose of radiation and requires only one scan.
With the information provided by CBCT scanning, dental professionals can reduce the number of appointments required for treatment, leading to faster treatment times and better patient outcomes.
CBCT scanning is a form of digital imaging that uses a cone-shaped X-ray beam to produce detailed 3D images of the teeth, jawbone, and surrounding structures. Unlike traditional 2D X-rays, which provide a flat image of the teeth and jaw, CBCT scanning allows for a complete 360-degree view of the patient’s dental anatomy. This means that we can see detailed images of the teeth, jawbone, nerves, and sinuses, providing valuable information for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
During a CBCT scan, the patient sits or stands still while the scanner rotates around their head, taking hundreds of images from different angles. These images are then combined using advanced software to create a detailed 3D image of the patient’s dental anatomy.
CBCT scanning can be used for a wide range of dental procedures, including:
At 57 Dental & Implant Centre, we are committed to providing our patients with the best possible dental care. That’s why we use the latest technology, including CBCT scanning, to ensure accurate diagnosis and effective treatment for all of our patients.
At 57 Dental & Implant Centre, our CBCT scan is quick and painless. You will be asked to sit or stand still while the scanner rotates around your head, taking multiple images from different angles. You may be asked to hold your breath for a few seconds to reduce movement during the scan. The entire process takes only a few minutes and you can resume your daily activities immediately after the scan.
CBCT scanning is generally considered safe for most patients. The level of radiation exposure during a CBCT scan is low, and we take every precaution to minimise exposure. If you are pregnant or suspect that you may be pregnant, please inform your dental professional before undergoing a CBCT scan.
The cost of CBCT scanning varies depending on the specific procedure and the location of the dental practice. At 57 Dental & Implant Centre, we strive to make our dental services affordable for all of our patients.
