At Lexington Heights Dental, we are at the forefront of dental innovation, and our use of 3D cone beam imaging exemplifies this commitment. This advanced imaging technology provides a three-dimensional view of the teeth, soft tissues, nerve pathways and bones in the craniofacial region in a single scan. It is a pivotal tool in planning and executing various dental treatments, enhancing precision and outcomes.
Understanding 3D Cone Beam Imaging
3D cone beam imaging is a cutting-edge dental imaging method that offers exceptionally detailed views of the oral and maxillofacial region. Unlike traditional X-rays, this technology creates 3D images, providing a comprehensive view of your dental anatomy.
Treatments Utilizing 3D Cone Beam Imaging
Our dentists may use 3D cone beam imaging for:
- Implant Planning: Essential for precise placement of dental implants.
- Orthodontics: Assists in planning and monitoring orthodontic treatments.
- Endodontics: Aids in complex root canal procedures.
The 3D Cone Beam Imaging Process
During your visit, the imaging process is quick and painless. You will stand or sit as the cone beam machine rotates around your head, capturing multiple images from different angles. These images are then reconstructed into a 3D model of your dental structures, providing invaluable information for your treatment.
Benefits of 3D Cone Beam Imaging
- Highly Detailed Images: Offers unparalleled views of dental structures.
- Improved Treatment Planning: Enhances the accuracy of various dental procedures.
- Reduced Exposure to Radiation: Lower radiation compared to traditional CT scans.
- Non-Invasive and Painless: A quick, easy process without discomfort.
- Faster Diagnosis: Efficient imaging leads to quicker treatment initiation.
