Advanced Diagnostics: How CBCT and 3D Imaging Guide Your Care
See your smile in 3D. Learn how Crown Dental Group uses CBCT technology to plan safer extractions, implants, and root canals for our National City patients.
At Crown Dental Group, we believe that you can’t treat what you can’t see. While 2D X-rays are great for cavities, they don’t show the whole story. This is why we’ve invested in CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) — the highest level of dental imaging available.
The Power of Three Dimensions
We use CBCT for more than just Implant Dentistry. It is a vital tool for general dental safety.
Why Do I Need a CBCT Scan?
- Surgical Extractions: When removing wisdom teeth, we need to see the exact proximity of the tooth roots to the alveolar nerve. CBCT gives us a 360-degree view, minimizing the risk of nerve damage.
- Endodontic Precision: For Root Canals, CBCT allows us to see the tiny, curved “accessory canals” that often cause traditional root canals to fail. By seeing them in 3D, we can clean them thoroughly.
- Bone Density: If you are considering All-on-4 or All-on-6 implants, we must know if your bone is dense enough to support the titanium posts.
Digital Impressions: Accuracy Meets Comfort
The dental experience of the past involved messy, gag-inducing putty. At Crown Dental Group, we have replaced this with Digital Impressions.
- Precision: Digital scans are accurate to within micrometers. This means your Veneers, Invisalign trays, and Night Guards fit perfectly the first time.
- Speed: We can send your files to our lab partners instantly via the cloud, shortening the wait time for your restorations.
