Cone Beam CT (CBCT)
At Dutton Dental, we are committed to using the latest technology to provide exceptional accuracy, safety, and efficiency in patient care. One of the most powerful tools we utilize is Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), an advanced 3D imaging system that allows for a detailed, high-resolution view of your teeth, jaw, and surrounding structures.
How CBCT Enhances Dental Care
Unlike traditional X-rays, CBCT scans produce a three-dimensional, panoramic view of your mouth and facial anatomy. This highly detailed imaging helps us diagnose, plan, and perform complex procedures with unmatched precision.
Common Uses of CBCT in Dentistry:
- Dental Implant Planning – Ensures precise implant placement by analyzing bone structure, density, and nerve positioning.
- Orthodontic & Bite Assessments – Evaluates jaw alignment, tooth positioning, and treatment planning for orthodontic care.
- Root Canal Therapy – Provides a clear view of root canals and surrounding bone to improve treatment outcomes.
- TMJ & Jaw Joint Evaluation – Assists in diagnosing and treating temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders.
- Wisdom Teeth & Surgical Planning – Helps determine the position of impacted teeth and plan extractions safely.
- Detection of Oral Pathology – Identifies cysts, tumors, infections, and other abnormalities with greater accuracy.
Why CBCT?
- Lower Radiation Exposure – Uses significantly less radiation than traditional medical CT scans.
- Quick & Painless – Scans are completed in seconds with no discomfort.
- Unmatched Precision – Provides clear, 3D visuals for more informed and accurate treatment decisions.
By integrating CBCT technology into our practice, Dutton Dental ensures safer, faster, and more precise diagnoses and treatments, allowing us to deliver the highest level of care to our patients.
