CBCT & OPG

Cone Beam computed tomography (CBCT)

CBCT (CT Scan) is a machine that combines dental X-rays and computerised tomography to create a 3D image of the jaws to evaluate more complex structures such as bone, soft tissue and teeth.

This is a perfect tool for planning:
– Implants,
– Root Canal Treatment,
– Wisdom Teeth extractions,

CBCT scanners also use a cone-shaped X-ray beam and capture images in a single rotation, resulting in a lower radiation dose compared to traditional CT scans.

OPG X-ray (Orthopantomogram)

Panoramic radiography also known as an OPG X-ray, is a type of X-ray scan that gives a panoramic or wide view of the lower face.

It displays all the teeth on both jaws on one film, including those that have not surfaced or erupted yet, such as wisdom teeth.

This type of X-ray allows us to identify areas of infection, locate and establish the exact position of wisdom teeth and their relation to your facial nerves. Bone levels can be checked and monitored which is crucial to get an overall view of your dental health. 

We accept referals for OPG and CBCT from the other Clinics!
