About Service
Cone-beam computed tomography creates a three-dimensional image of the selected area. It can assist implant planning and other situations in which the position of anatomical structures matters.
CBCT is not a routine requirement for every dental visit. The dentist should justify the examination, select an appropriate field of view and consider existing images to avoid unnecessary exposure.
What the treatment or procedure involves
- Review of the referral and existing images.
- Selection of the field of view and acquisition of the scan.
- Interpretation of the findings within the overall clinical assessment.
Important considerations
- The scan uses ionising radiation, with doses generally higher than conventional dental radiographs.
Indications
- A clinical question that requires three-dimensional information.
- Planning treatment when conventional images are insufficient.
Contraindications
- Lack of a clinical indication: the scan should not be taken merely as a precaution.
- Children and patients who may be pregnant should tell the clinician so the need and technique can be carefully assessed; necessary care should not be abandoned without advice.
Advantages
- Three-dimensional visualisation of the selected area.
- Additional information for questions that conventional imaging cannot answer.
