What is a CBCT scan?
A CBCT scan, or Cone Beam Computed Tomography, is a specialized type of 3D dental x-ray that captures highly detailed images of your teeth, bone, nerves, and soft tissue using a cone-shaped beam. Unlike traditional 2D x-rays, CBCT provides a complete three-dimensional view, allowing for more accurate diagnoses and safer treatment planning for procedures like dental implants, TMJ evaluations, and complex root canals—all while using significantly less radiation than a medical CT scan.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a CBCT scan exactly?
A CBCT scan is a 3D x-ray that captures detailed images of your teeth, jaw, nerves, and tissues. It’s more detailed than traditional x-rays and essential for certain treatments.
Is a CBCT scan safe?
Yes. It uses low radiation and is significantly safer than a hospital CT scan. Most scans are completed in less than 9 seconds.
Do I need a CBCT scan before getting a dental implant?
Most likely. CBCT scans help plan precise implant placement, minimizing risk and improving results.
How long will it take?
There are a number of different scans, but a typical one lasts just under 9 seconds. You will have to remove any facial jewelry, hearing aids, and neck chains, and wait for a dentist to review that the scan has all the information we need, so if you are from an outside clinic, you will be in our clinic for about twenty minutes.
Will I get a copy of my scan?
Yes. We can provide a disc, digital file, or send it directly to your referring dentist.
