3D Dental Scan
What is a 3D dental scan?
A 3D dental scan is an advanced imaging technique that utilizes CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) technology to produce detailed, three-dimensional images of your teeth, jaws, and surrounding structures. This state-of-the-art method provides a clearer and more comprehensive view compared to traditional dental X-rays, enabling an accurate diagnosis and improving treatment planning for various dental procedures.
