Advanced CBCT Scanner in Oxford, MI
We use the Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scanner at John Khoury Dental to obtain highly detailed 3D images of your teeth, jaw, and surrounding structures. With this technology, we can plan treatment with enhanced precision, resulting in the most accurate diagnoses and optimal results possible.
Precision Imaging for Accurate Diagnosis
Modern dentistry has always been about precision and accuracy in diagnosis. A new generation of imaging techniques has emerged, making diagnosis easier and faster. As a result, our patients receive timely and comprehensive treatment. 3D imaging is not just great for visualization, but it’s also critical to enhancing diagnostic accuracy. In dental care, advanced imaging plays a big role in diagnosing, planning, and executing dental treatments. The CBCT has played an important role in dental diagnosis, making it a valuable tool for dentists.
What is a CBCT Scanner?
The term CBCT refers to cone beam computed tomography. Dental professionals use cone-shaped X-rays to capture data using CBCT systems. It takes less than a minute to capture 150-200 images from a variety of angles. This data is used to reconstruct a 3D image of your teeth, mouth, neck, jaw, ears, nose, and throat based on the information captured.
Benefits of Using CBCT Scanners
- Accurate Diagnosis for Customized Treatment Plans
CBCT imaging allows us to detect orthodontic and structural issues that are not visible on conventional X-rays. These include hidden impacted teeth, jaw misalignment, obstructions to the airway, and root positioning. Using 3D images ensures that no details are missed and our dentist will provide an accurate diagnosis. This way, we can customize a treatment plan based on our findings.
- Comfort During the Procedure
We will place a sensor in your mouth and immediately transmit hundreds of images to our computer system. From the photos, a 3D model of your mouth will be built. It only takes a few minutes and is comfortable and convenient.
- High-Definition Images
Our digital photos are extremely detailed and allow us to see your mouth from many different angles. The images can be rotated, magnified, color-coded, and altered as needed to create an effective treatment plan.
- 3D Representation of the Mouth
The scanner enables Dr. Khoury to see the structure of your mouth and jaw in a way that is impossible with the naked eye. He can also predict how things will look after treatment and create comparison photos.
- Reduced Radiation Exposure
X-rays expose patients to significant levels of radiation. Our CBCT digital scanner can reduce this amount by up to 90%.
