We stay up-to-date with the latest innovations in dentistry in order to provide safe, efficient treatment. We are pleased to utilize cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). This technology provides detailed, three-dimensional images of roots, canals and bone structure beneath the surface of the teeth and gums.
Using this fast, precise CBCT scanner, the patient is exposed to minimal radiation, and we no longer have to rely on two-dimensional X-rays for diagnosis and treatment planning. The scanner produces a high resolution image after 24 seconds, much less time than compared to two-dimensional X-rays.
This advanced technology also allows us to use 3-D mapping tools to create a detailed treatment plan for even the most complex cases. With the 3-D images, we can examine the jawbone before surgery. CBCT can also be used to plan root canals and identify TMJ problems.
