CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) Imaging: Accurate Diagnostics for Your Oral Health
At Signature Dental Care, we're committed to providing our patients with the most advanced diagnostic tools available. Our CBCT imaging technology is a powerful tool that helps us detect and diagnose oral health issues with unparalleled accuracy.
What is CBCT Imaging?
CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) imaging is a type of X-ray technology that uses a cone-shaped beam to capture detailed, 3D images of your teeth, jawbone, and surrounding tissues. This advanced technology allows us to visualize your oral anatomy with unprecedented precision, enabling us to diagnose and treat complex dental issues more effectively.
Benefits of CBCT Imaging

- Minimized Radiation Exposure: Our CBCT machine uses significantly less radiation than traditional CT scanners, making it a safer option for patients.
- Detailed Visualization: CBCT images provide detailed views of your oral anatomy, allowing us to identify even the smallest issues before they become major problems.
- Improved Treatment Planning: With accurate diagnoses and detailed imaging, we can create personalized treatment plans tailored to your unique needs.
