What is a CBCT Scan?
A CBCT scan is a specialized imaging technique that captures detailed 3D images of the teeth, jawbone, and surrounding structures. Unlike traditional x-rays, CBCT scans offer comprehensive views of the anatomy, helping us assess the mouth in greater detail.
This advanced imaging is invaluable for accurate diagnosis and successful treatment in a variety of dental procedures.
How CBCT Scans Enhance Dental Care
CBCT scans provide our team with high-resolution images that are essential for understanding the full scope of a patient’s oral health. They allow us to:
- Evaluate bone density and structure in the jaw

With CBCT imaging, we ensure that every treatment is tailored to the unique needs of our patients.
