What is CBCT?
CBCT is a type of X-ray equipment specifically designed for dental and maxillofacial use. Unlike traditional 2D X-rays, CBCT captures three-dimensional images of the oral and facial region in a single scan. It uses a cone-shaped X-ray beam to take multiple images from different angles, which are then reconstructed into a 3D model.
This advanced imaging technique allows for a comprehensive view of the bone structure, nerve pathways, and tooth orientation—all in incredible detail. The accuracy and precision of CBCT imaging make it an invaluable tool in modern dentistry.

Applications of CBCT in Dentistry
It plays a critical role in various dental specialties. Here’s how we use this application at our clinic:

Implant Planning: CBCT provides measurements of bone height and width, essential for planning dental implant placement. It also helps avoid nerve damage by mapping critical anatomical structures.
Root Canal Treatment: Endodontists use  to detect hidden canals, root fractures, and periapical lesions. This ensures thorough cleaning and shaping during root canal therapy.
Orthodontics: For orthodontic treatment, it offers a complete view of the jaw and tooth positions. This enables accurate assessment of misalignments and supports better treatment planning for braces or aligners.
Oral Surgery: In cases requiring extractions or jaw surgery, it provides detailed information about the location of nerves and impacted teeth, reducing surgical risks.
TMJ Analysis: It  helps to evaluate the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) in patients experiencing jaw pain or dysfunction. It provides insight into joint anatomy and movement.
Sinus Evaluation: Dentists use CBCT scans to assess the maxillary sinuses before procedures like sinus lifts, ensuring safe and effective treatment.

Is CBCT Safe?
Yes, CBCT is a safe imaging method. Although it involves radiation, the dosage is significantly lower compared to traditional CT scans. At VS Dental Clinic, we adhere to strict safety guidelines to ensure minimal exposure. The quick scanning process also contributes to reduced radiation time.
