Great dentistry starts with great diagnostics. Digital X-rays and 3-dimensional CBCT scans help us see cavities, infections, fractures, bone levels, nerve pathways, sinus anatomy, and more—so your treatment is precise and personalized.
Digital X-Rays: Clear Images with Low Dose
- Detect cavities between teeth and under restorations
- Evaluate bone loss from gum disease
- Check root tips and infection areas
- Guide routine care with sharp, fast images
3D CBCT: A Complete Picture
Cone Beam CT creates a 3D model of your jaws and facial structures. It’s invaluable for:
- Dental implants planning (bone height/width, nerve mapping)
- Impacted teeth and wisdom teeth evaluation
- Root canal diagnostics and retreatment planning
- Airway/sinus assessment and pathology screening
Safety & Comfort
Modern systems are designed for efficient, focused imaging. We follow ALARA principles (as low as reasonably achievable) and tailor imaging to your needs.
Why Imaging Matters for Outcomes
- Fewer surprises during treatment
- More conservative, targeted care
- Better communication—you can see what we see
FAQs
Are dental X-rays safe?
Yes. Digital sensors and focused beams deliver very low radiation compared to older systems, and far less than many medical scans.
Why would I need a CBCT instead of 2D X-rays?
CBCT shows depth and spatial relationships that 2D can’t—critical for implants, root canals, complex extractions, and sinus evaluation.
Do I need to prepare for a CBCT?
Usually no special prep is needed. We’ll guide you on removing metals (glasses, earrings) to avoid image artifacts.
