Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT)

At Precision Periodontics, we use advanced CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) scans to support accurate diagnosis and precise treatment planning. This cutting-edge 3D dental imaging technology allows us to deliver safe, predictable, and high-quality periodontal and dental implant care.

What Is a CBCT Scan?

A CBCT scan is a specialised dental X-ray that produces detailed three-dimensional images of the teeth, jawbone, nerves, sinuses, and surrounding oral structures. Unlike traditional 2D dental X-rays, CBCT imaging provides a complete view of your oral anatomy, allowing for more accurate assessment and planning.

CBCT scans play a critical role in periodontal and implant dentistry, helping us to:

  • Assess bone loss and bone quality
  • Diagnose periodontal disease and infections
  • Plan dental implant placement with precision
  • Identify nerves, sinuses, and vital structures
  • Evaluate complex or high-risk cases
This advanced imaging improves safety and treatment outcomes.
CBCT imaging is essential for dental implant planning. It allows us to measure bone height, width, and density, ensuring implants are placed accurately while avoiding nerves and sinuses. This results in improved success rates and long-term stability.
CBCT scans are fast, non-invasive, and low-radiation. The scan usually takes less than one minute and provides immediate results. Radiation exposure is significantly lower than that of a medical CT scan, making it a safe option for most patients.
  • Greater diagnostic accuracy
  • Reduced treatment risks
  • More precise surgical planning
  • Improved patient comfort
  • Better long-term outcomes

Applications of CBCT in Periodontal Care

CBCT imaging supports various specialised treatments, allowing for exceptional accuracy and results. It is especially valuable in the following areas:

01

Dental Implant Placement

CBCT helps us create a 3D model of your jaw, ensuring precise implant positioning. This reduces risks and ensures optimal function and aesthetics.

02

Diagnosing Complex Cases

Whether it’s an impacted tooth, a root fracture, or an unidentifiable dental issue, CBCT uncovers details that traditional X-rays cannot detect.

03

Periodontal Disease Management

We use CBCT to assess bone health, plan regenerative treatments, and manage gum disease with accuracy and efficiency.

04

Comprehensive Orthodontic and Endodontic Support

From planning orthodontic treatments to conducting root canal procedures, CBCT provides the clarity required for intricate and customised care.
