CBCT/3D Imaging

To ensure that your treatment process goes as smoothly as possible and to ensure your safety during surgical procedures, we use state-of-the-art 3D imaging equipment. CBCT/3D imaging allows for proper evaluation of oral conditions and is an important resource because it creates accurate images of the bones, structures, and tissues in your mouth and jaw.

At Crestview Family Dentistry, we utilize this advanced technology to produce optimal clinical results. We will likely take 3D scans of your mouth and face for Implant planning, Root Canal evaluation, Invisalign planning, and Wisdom Teeth extractions.

Benefits of 3D Imaging With Oral Surgery

Using 3D imaging to plan your treatment means that your procedure will be safer, more precise, and require less chair time. The images created by our 3D CBCT scanner give us far more information about your condition than a traditional 2-dimensional X-ray image. The images reveal details such as the location of nerves, hidden structures, and other important information in 3-dimension. There are benefits patients experience when treatment plans are formed using these detailed images:

• Images with a higher level of detail
• Fewer surprises during surgery 
• Implant guides created from 3D scans permit faster Implant surgeries
• Calculate accurate distance to important nerves and vital structures
• Easier treatment planning with accurate records
• Less radiation exposure than traditional scans
• One scan is completed in seconds
