Together with computer software, it creates a clear and precise 3D image, which allows completely precise planning of treatment, implants, restorations…
Leading clinics have 3D X-ray equipment. We have it too, at our dental centre, which is equipped with state-of-the-art technology, including a 3D X-ray.
Unlike a conventional X-ray, a 3D X-ray can create high-resolution 3D images. These give us much more detailed information about the condition of the teeth and the mouth than conventional 2D panoramic images. In addition, you are not exposed to more radiation than during a standard X-ray examination.
3D imaging makes it possible to improve the quality of your dental treatment. It is not only the high-resolution images that make 3D imaging unique, but also the ability to target and image areas that are harder to reach and difficult to show on a conventional X-ray. Imaging with a 3D X-ray is quick and, of course, painless, and no preparation is needed in advance. During the examination, the patient usually stands or sits.
A 3D X-ray is used both to establish the correct diagnosis and to plan the subsequent treatment. It can be used in the diagnosis and treatment of tooth decay, in endodontic procedures, before implant placement and so on.
