Cone Beam CT: The Power of 3D Imaging in Dentistry

When it comes to diagnosing and treating complex dental issues, precision matters. That’s why at East Atlanta Endodontics & Microsurgery, we use advanced Cone Beam CT (CBCT) technology to give our patients the most accurate, efficient, and comfortable care possible.

This 3D imaging tool has transformed how we see, and treat, problems below the surface.

Unlike traditional dental X-rays, which show flat, two-dimensional images, Cone Beam CT scans provide a high-resolution 3D view of your teeth, jawbone, nerves, sinuses, and surrounding structures. This level of detail allows us to pinpoint the exact location and extent of infections, cracks, or anatomical complexities that may not appear on standard X-rays.

Using CBCT technology helps us plan treatments with greater precision, whether it’s a root canal, retreatment, apicoectomy, or evaluation of traumatic injuries. It also minimizes guesswork, reduces the risk of complications, and leads to better long-term outcomes,

all while exposing you to a lower dose of radiation compared to traditional CT scans.

Our commitment to cutting-edge technology like Cone Beam CT reflects our goal: to provide the highest standard of endodontic care with accuracy, safety, and patient comfort at the forefront.
