The Columbia Center Utilizes CBCT 3D Scanners For Precise Implant And Periodontal Treatment

COLUMBIA, Md. - Aug. 29, 2022 - PRLog -- When it comes to high-quality and in-depth x-ray technology, CBCT technology is at the top of the game. That is because this dental-specific technology can provide scans that are as in-depth as standard CT technology. This dental technology is a scanner that is shaped like a cone and can move around the patient's mouth, providing greater coverage than conventional dental x-ray machines.

The goal of creating the CBCT technology was to provide dental offices with a smaller, minimally invasive, lower-cost machine than previous scanning devices. This helps lower costs for dentists and allows them to bring treatments to their clients at a more affordable rate, something Dr. Jose understands is very important in his dental practice.

The CBCT can be used to diagnose a variety of conditions such as impacted teeth, TMJ disorders, deep infections in the gums or teeth, and much more. Furthermore, this technology is beneficial in the precise placement of dental implants. This allows for the doctor to better understand conditions afflicting patients and take the best course of treatment possible for their unique affliction.

All of this is possible because of the 3D images the CBCT is able to produce. These 3D digital models provide the doctor a way to explore different treatment options with a high level of accuracy to the patient's condition. That is because the soft tissue, bone structures, and nerves are all visible in this scan. This technology interfaces well with other technology like the CAD/CAM, which allows for the doctor to design plans for treatments with pinpoint accuracy.

Dr. Jose believes in the importance of making high-quality treatment accessible to those with more restricted budgets. Not only does CBCT allow for the best 3D dental technology for planning treatments, but the cost of this technology is also lower than other similar pieces in the field. This brings down the cost of treatment and makes it more accessible to those in need of critical care they may be worried about affording.
