Cone Beam Computed Tomography CBCT Louisville Family Dental and Advanced Implant Center

CBCT

An important part of modern implant treatment.

Cone-beam computed tomography systems (CBCT) are radiographic systems used by dental professionals to analyze and reconstruct 3D images of a patient’s teeth, jaws and surrounding anatomy. The information obtained by means of CBCT imaging is useful in both diagnosis and precise treatment planning when two-dimensional diagnostic films are insufficient. Dental CBCT is useful for multiple types of analyses as well as the assessment of maxillofacial disorders or pathology. It is also most useful in surgical planning, including the accurate placement of dental implants.
