Dental Technology | Quality Dental Implant Placement

A cone beam machine (often called CBCT – Cone Beam Computed Tomography) is a special type of 3D dental imaging technology. Instead of a flat, two-dimensional X-ray, it uses a cone-shaped beam of radiation to capture a full 3D scan of your teeth, jawbone, nerves, and surrounding structures in a single rotation.

How Cone Beam Benefits Patients

  1. Better Diagnosis & Planning

    • Provides a detailed 3D view of teeth, bone, airways, and nerves.

    • Helps detect issues that traditional X-rays can miss, like hidden infections, fractures, or unusual anatomy.

  2. Improved Dental Implant Placement

  3. More Accurate Root Canal Treatment

    • Shows the exact shape and number of root canals.

    • Identifies infections or complications that can’t be seen with 2D imaging.

  4. Enhanced Orthodontic & Surgical Planning

    • Helps orthodontists and dental surgeons plan tooth movement, jaw surgery, and airway treatments with precision.

    • Allows for digital treatment planning and simulation.

  5. Lower Radiation than Medical CT

    • Uses far less radiation compared to a traditional medical CT scan.

    • Safe for dental use while still giving highly detailed images.

  6. More Comfortable for Patients

    • Quick scan (usually less than 30 seconds).

    • Non-invasive and painless.

👉 In simple terms:
A cone beam machine gives your dentist a complete 3D map of your mouth. With this technology, your care is more accurate, safer, and tailored to your unique anatomy.

Dental Work | Importance of Routine Dental Care | Preventative Dental Care

Importance of Routine Dental Care  When I was in my 30s and a dentist told me I needed a few crowns , I decided to skip the expensive devices because of my meager paycheck. Besides, my teeth weren't hurting. Years later, I am paying the price in pain and costlier dental work . One of the damaged teeth that needed a crown distorted my bite, making a minor jaw-joint problem even worse. Unfortunately I'm far from alone. The price of dental care is steep for many people financially, physically and even socially, according to Marko Vujicic, chief economist and vice president of the Health Policy Institute at the American Dental Association. Vujicic said that the  majority of emergency room dental visits  were for infections that could be handled in a dentist's office. Overall, emergency room dental visits cost $1.9 billion yearly, 40 percent of which is public money, according to his institute's analysis of data from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quali...
