What is Cone Beam 3D Imaging, and how does it differ from traditional dental X-rays?

Cone Beam 30 Imaging is a dental imaging technique that uses a cone-shaped beam to capture detailed, three-dimensional images of the teeth, jaw, and surrounding structures. Unlike traditional X-rays, which provide two-dimensional images, Cone Beam scans offer a more comprehensive view, allowing dentists to visualize the anatomy in three dimensions.

Is Cone Beam 3D Imaging safe?

Cone Beam 3D Imaging is generally considered safe, as it exposes patients to lower radiation doses compared to traditional medical CT scans. The amount of radiation is kept to a minimum, and dentists take necessary  precautions, such as using lead aprons, to further reduce exposure. Pregnant women are usually advised to avoid these scans unless necessary.

What are the common uses of Cone Beam 3D Imaging in dentistry?

Cone Beam 3D Imaging is used in various dental applications, including implant planning, orthodontic assessments, diagnosing impacted teeth, and assessing the anatomy of the oral and maxillofacial region. It provides detailed images that aid in precise treatment planning.

How long does a Cone Beam scan take?

The duration of a Cone Beam scan is relatively short, typically taking only 10 to 30 seconds. The process is quick and efficient, providing detailed images that can be used for diagnostic and treatment planning purposes.
