CBCT scanners are becoming more and more popular in dental practices. They are capable of producing three-dimensional images of the jawbone, teeth, and oral tissues. This allows the dentist to get a more accurate view of the patient’s dental anatomy and to plan treatments accordingly.
CBCT is a valuable tool for dentists because it provides a much more detailed image than traditional dental X-rays. This enables dentists to detect problems that may not be visible on traditional X-rays, such as infections, cysts, and tumors. CBCT can also help to diagnose problems associated with wisdom teeth, tumors, jaw alignment, and any other surrounding soft tissue issues.
Dentists use intra-oral optical scanning devices to obtain digital impressions of their patient’s teeth. These devices are small, about the size of a pen, and feature a small scanning camera that creates these digital impressions.
This technology has been slowly replacing conventional impression-taking methods and has made impressions more efficient and accurate. With the advent of new technologies, digital impressions can be obtained in a matter of seconds, as opposed to the minutes it would take to take a conventional impression. Impressions that have been done digitally can provide a more accurate depiction of the patient’s teeth and gums. This, in turn, can help dentists give their patients more precise treatment plans.
