What is CBCT imaging?

CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) imaging is a 3D x-ray technology that provides detailed views of dental structures, soft tissues, and airways.

Is CBCT imaging safe?

Yes, CBCT imaging is safe and uses lower radiation doses compared to traditional CT scans. There is as much radiation in a CBCT scan as eating a banana.

How does CBCT imaging benefit dental treatment?

CBCT imaging allows for more accurate diagnoses, better treatment planning, and improved outcomes in various dental procedures, especially those related to airway issues.

The Importance of CBCT Imaging

CBCT imaging is essential for providing precise, tailored airway care at Dentistry with a Touch of Art. This technology allows Dr. Rawa to:

See your airway in 3D- We are able to check if your airway is narrow or blocked, which could be affecting your breathing or sleep.
Evaluate jaw and bite position- The way your jaw sits can affect your airway and whether you’re breathing properly.
Plan more accurately- Think of a CBCT scan as getting a complete map before building or fixing something. We want to make sure any treatment is not just cosmetic, but supports your ability to breathe and feel better every day. If you need treatment like an oral appliance, pre-orthodontics, or anything to help open your airway, the scan gives us a roadmap for safer and more effective treatment. It also allows us to check for progress during your airway treatment.
