What is CBCT  Imaging?

Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is an advanced 3D imaging technology that provides highly detailed scans of your teeth, jaw, nerves, and bone structure.

Unlike traditional X-rays, CBCT captures precise, 360-degree images in seconds, allowing for more accurate diagnoses and treatment planning.

CBCT scans shows details such as:

  • Bone density and thickness
  • Tooth root position
  • Nerve pathways
  • Hidden infections or cysts
  • Impacted teeth
  • Sinus anatomy


The scan is quick, non-invasive, and comfortable. You simply stand or sit still while the scanner rotates around your head.

Why Do You Need a CBCT Scan?

  • More Accurate Diagnoses – Detects issues that regular X-rays can miss, like hidden infections or bone loss.
  • Safer & Low Radiation – Uses less radiation than traditional CT scans while providing better detail.
  • Faster & More Comfortable – Quick, non-invasive, and completed in just seconds.
  • Better Treatment Planning – Essential for dental implants, wisdom teeth removal, TMJ issues, and pathology.

Is CBCT Imaging Safe?

Yes. CBCT scans use low-dose radiation and are considered very safe for dental and surgical use. The radiation exposure is significantly lower than that of a medical CT scan and is similar to a few standard dental X-rays.

Scans are performed only when necessary and always with your safety in mind.
