3D X-ray
In our dental practice in Berlin Mitte we offer the latest cone-beam computed tomography, an advanced 3D X-ray procedure that provides detailed insights into the structure of the mouth and jaw. This highly precise diagnostic tool is essential for planning and carrying out complex dental procedures. Discover the advantages of our 3D diagnostics for precise and gentle treatment.
Cone-beam computed tomography / 3D X-ray – state-of-the-art diagnostics for your dental health
Cone-beam computed tomography, also known as 3D X-ray, is an innovative imaging technique that enables high-resolution three-dimensional images of the head and jaw area.
In contrast to conventional two-dimensional X-rays, CBCT provides detailed 3D images that enable precise diagnosis and planning of dental procedures.
What is cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) used for?
CBCT is used in dentistry for a variety of applications, including:
-
Implant planning: Exact assessment of the jawbone for optimal positioning of implants.
-
Wisdom tooth diagnostics: Precise representation of the position of wisdom teeth and their proximity to nerve pathways.
-
Orthodontics: Determination of the exact tooth position and analysis of jaw growth.
-
Assessment of Temporomandibular joint problems: Detailed representation of the temporomandibular joints for the diagnosis of pain and dysfunction.
How does cone-beam computed tomography work?
In CBCT, an X-ray machine rotates around the patient's head and creates a variety of images from different angles.
These individual images are combined to form a three-dimensional image that provides a detailed view of the anatomical structures.
The examination is quick and painless and only takes a few minutes.
What are the advantages of cone-beam computed tomography?
-
Precision: CBCT offers extremely high image quality, which makes it possible to view the smallest structures in detail.
-
Safety: The three-dimensional representation allows procedures to be better planned and carried out, which minimizes the risk of complications.
-
Reduced radiation exposure: Compared to conventional CT scans, the radiation exposure during CBCT is significantly lower .
Is cone-beam computed tomography safe?
Yes, CBCT is a safe examination method. The radiation exposure is low and well below the limit values. In addition, the examination only takes a short time, which further minimizes exposure.
