Implant assessment
Assessment of available bone and its relationship to nearby anatomical structures.
Explore teeth, jaws and their spatial relationships in three dimensions, when additional information is needed for your care.
3D VOLUME · ILLUSTRATIVE VISUALCone beam computed tomography uses X-rays to create a three-dimensional view of dental and bony structures. Your dentist selects this examination when it can answer a clinical question that simpler imaging cannot adequately resolve.
Your referring clinician determines whether this examination is appropriate.
Assessment of available bone and its relationship to nearby anatomical structures.
Additional information in specific complex cases, following clinical assessment.
Three-dimensional localisation when clinically indicated.
Cross-sectional information about teeth and bony anatomy, reviewed in axial, coronal and sagittal planes. A rendered 3D view helps orientation; assessment relies on the underlying volume.
CBCT has limited soft-tissue contrast. Motion and dense dental materials can obscure detail. Findings need to be interpreted with the referral and clinical assessment.
