3D X-rays - Your Treatment Advantage

The docs talk about the benefits of investing in next generation technology and its impact on the cost of services.

They invested in Cone Beam aka CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) technology. It provides them with three dimensional x-rays. These show an exact replica of the patient's jaw and bony structures. Imaging takes only seconds.

Three dimensional x-rays take the guesswork out of treatment. The docs know exactly what conditions they will face during treatment. They can plan in advance and know that they can execute their plans. No more surprises!

Three dimensional x-rays provide a tremendous advantage over two dimensional images. Two dimensional x-rays show a patient's jaw and bony structures super imposed on one another.

These images are useful but result in more guesswork in the treatment process. The docs may not be able to execute their plan and have to figure it out while treating.

When the docs can plan in advance, treatment is more efficient, easier on patient, and a lot less stressful for the docs. It is simply a must when placing dental implants.

Cone Beam technology was a six figure investment but so very worth the high cost.
