CBCT Referrals
New Westminster City Dentist
Are you a dentist looking for our CBCT Referral Form?
One of the latest pieces of equipment we have in our South Vancouver dental clinic is a cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) machine. This advanced X-ray machine captures multiple pictures of a patient’s teeth, bone, soft tissue, and nerve pathways and pieces these pictures together to form a clear and detailed 3D image. This type of scan is ideal for times when a regular dental X-ray can’t provide a satisfactory view of the area.
CBCT scans also offer a number of benefits to the patient. It’s painless, noninvasive, and provides several views and angles for a more complete evaluation by our dentist Vancouver, BC. Some of the common uses for a CBCT scan include creating a plan for computer-guided implant surgery, diagnosing airway sleep disorders, putting together a plan for surgically fixing impacted teeth, and creating a plan for reconstructive surgery.
