Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT)
CBCT stands for Cone Beam Computed Tomography. It's a 3D imaging technology used in dentistry to provide detailed images of the oral and maxillofacial regions. CBCT scans are crucial for precise treatment planning, especially for implant placement, oral surgery, and orthodontics.
Dental practitioners can benefit from a cone beam in various ways. These consist of:
Evaluation of Endodontics
Orthodontic-related impacted teet
assessment of the paranasal sinuses
Visualizing the TMJ
trauma assessment
immediate advanced imaging and medical care
However, One of the most common reasons dental professionals seek cone beam technology is to offer dental implants and other specialized treatments to their patients. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) lets you visualize a cross-sectional view of the implant location. This view provides critical information you can't get from a 2D image. The AAOMR has been recommending cross-sectional imaging for assessing all dental implant sites since 2012, and cone beam is the method of choice.
