A 3D image, also known as computed tomography, is one of the most accurate radiological diagnostic tools. With this method, unlike two-dimensional X-rays, it is possible to see deeper internal structures of the body, which results in more effective diagnostics and an accurate further treatment plan. You can be уверed that at “Ozo” clinic you will receive an innovative 3D dental scan. The price, compared to the versatility of the technology and its great benefits, is very attractive and accessible to everyone.
What is a 3D dental image?
In modern dentistry, computed tomography is one of the most important and most accurate diagnostic tools. The resulting image shows a very precise, real, and undistorted view of both jaws—the upper and lower. In addition, it also allows visualization of surrounding areas: sinuses, airways, and temporomandibular joints.
A 3D image helps not only to determine complex root anatomy, but also the size of inflammatory lesions, the extent of damage, and the condition of surrounding tissues and teeth. A 3D image also helps to assess:
- periodontal pathologies;
- bone fractures;
- root fractures;
- tooth position anomalies;
- foreign bodies;
- the overall condition of tissues in the jaw area.
After a high-quality evaluation of the problem and the anatomical condition of tissues and teeth, dentists can accurately, effectively, and precisely plan the entire treatment process and necessary surgical procedures.
When is a 3D dental image taken?
The price of a 3D dental image may be higher compared to other procedures; however, this should not be the determining factor. In fact, in the majority of treatment cases, a panoramic 3D dental image is required. Quality is essential here, therefore dentists confidently apply it in many cases of dental evaluation.
This panoramic image is also taken when aiming to identify caries and decay changes, assess root condition, tooth changes, wisdom tooth position, bone loss, and untreated root canals. More specifically, a 3D image is required when planning:
- orthodontic treatment with braces;
- prosthetic treatment;
- surgical procedures (dental implantation, bone augmentation, impacted or wisdom tooth extraction);
- evaluation of the overall condition of teeth and jaws;
- evaluation of periodontal condition.
A 3D dental image is important when aiming for high-quality and accurate treatment. It can уточнить a diagnosis established using a two-dimensional X-ray, allowing dentists to more precisely identify diseases and treat them with greater accuracy, as well as perform surgeries. Based only on a two-dimensional image, dentists are more likely to make errors and less accurately determine pathology.
Is computed tomography harmful to health?
Do you have doubts about tomography because of the perceived harm a 3D dental image may cause? The price you pay for the scan will not turn into costs for treating damage. Specialists at “Ozo” clinic confirm that a 3D image does not harm your health.
The 3D imaging device emits a very narrow beam of radiation, therefore exposure is very low and examinations are safe. Modern digital technologies have reduced radiation doses by several percent, so there is no need to worry.
Why choose “Ozo” clinic for 3D imaging?
The specialists at “Ozo” clinic use only safe and comfortable tools for patient treatment that do not pose any harm to health. By visiting, you can be sure that innovative solutions are applied here and the highest-quality equipment is used.
