CBCT 3D Imaging in Vancouver for Precise Diagnosis

At the Lacamas Dental & Cosmetic Center, our CBCT 3D imaging allows us to go beyond the limitations of what can be seen from conventional dental X-rays. This latest technology in dental imaging enables the creation of precise three-dimensional images of the teeth and jaws, including nerves and other support structures. Our Vancouver, WA, practice utilizes our CBCT 3D imaging services to help us diagnose your condition more effectively.

By integrating cone beam CT scan technology, we can examine the complex region around the mouth in a single scan.

Advanced Diagnostics for Implants and Complex Cases

CBCT imaging plays a key role in advanced dental diagnostic workups, especially in dental implant treatment planning or the assessment of complex oral pathologies. The detail from a dental CT scan provides insight into anatomy that is not observable at a standard image and is particularly useful in understanding bone density and spatial relationships.

The following are cases where CBCT 3D imaging is more often used:

• Planning and placement of dental implants
• The evaluation of the jawbone structure and bone volume
• Assessment of impacted teeth and nerve positioning
• Diagnosis of complex dental or facial conditions 

That level of detail supports safer treatment and is predictable in its outcomes.

How 3D Dental Imaging Enhances Treatment Planning 

While traditional pictures only provide a two-dimensional image, a 3D dental image offers a comprehensive perspective of your oral structures from various angles. This feature allows for more precise planning and reduces potential complications during treatment.

The advantages of CBCT and advanced dental imaging include:

• Highly accurate measurements and visualization
• Improved treatment precision
• Better patient comprehension with visuals
• Individual support for personalized, case-specific treatment

These insights and observations are very useful when planning a surgical or restorative procedure.
