ADVANCED IMAGING TECHNOLOGY
CBCT Imaging and Intraoral Scanners
At New Look Dental, we are dedicated to providing exceptional dental care by leveraging the latest imaging technology. Our advanced tools, including CBCT imaging and intraoral scanners, allow us to deliver accurate diagnoses and personalized treatment plans.
What is CBCT Imaging? What is an Intraoral Scanner?
CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) imaging is a cutting-edge X-ray technology that produces detailed 3D images of your teeth, jaw, and surrounding structures. Unlike traditional X-rays, CBCT offers a comprehensive, high-resolution view of your oral anatomy, enabling precise diagnoses and treatment planning.
An intraoral scanner is a handheld device that uses advanced imaging technology to capture a precise digital map of your teeth and gums. This modern alternative to traditional impressions offers a faster, more comfortable experience.
Why Choose CBCT Imaging and Intraoral Scanners?
Both CBCT imaging and intraoral scanners provide numerous benefits that enhance your dental care:
- Enhanced Accuracy: Both technologies offer precise, high-resolution images, allowing for more accurate diagnoses and treatment planning.
- Comfortable Experience: Intraoral scanners eliminate the need for messy impression materials, ensuring a pleasant visit.
- Comprehensive Views: CBCT imaging provides detailed 3D images of your teeth, jawbone, and surrounding structures, while intraoral scanners offer a full digital map of your dental anatomy.
- Improved Treatment Planning: These tools enable us to plan complex procedures such as implants, orthodontics, and extractions with greater precision.
- Quick and Efficient: Both CBCT scans and intraoral scans are fast, providing results in minutes for immediate evaluation.
- Minimized Radiation Exposure: CBCT imaging uses a lower radiation dose than traditional CT scans without compromising image quality.
- Eco-Friendly Solution: Digital impressions from intraoral scanners reduce the need for physical molds, making them an environmentally conscious choice.
- Better Patient Understanding: See detailed 3D images during your visit, helping you understand your treatment options.
Our advanced imaging technology helps us provide you with exceptional care and ensures your comfort and safety every step of the way.
