Our team is committed to offering our patients the most advanced diagnostic tools available. We proudly use cone beam 3D imaging in Pittsburgh, Fox Chapel and Allison Park, Pennsylvania, to enhance orthodontic care with unmatched precision. Dr. Bradley D. Smith utilizes this technology to gain a detailed, three-dimensional view of the teeth, jaw and facial structures, leading to more accurate diagnoses and better treatment outcomes.
Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging allows us to see beyond what traditional X-rays can capture, providing a comprehensive understanding of each patient’s oral anatomy. This technology supports customized, effective orthodontic plans that prioritize patient safety, comfort and success.
What to Expect from Cone Beam 3D Imaging
Cone beam 3D imaging is a simple, non-invasive procedure that typically takes less than a minute. Our orthodontist and team use a specialized machine that rotates around the patient’s head, capturing hundreds of detailed images. These images are then combined to create a complete 3D model.
Some advantages of cone beam 3D imaging include:
- Better visualization of roots, nerves and bone structures
- More precise planning for orthodontic treatments
- Early detection of potential complications
- Lower radiation exposure compared to traditional CT scans
By incorporating cone beam imaging into our diagnostic process, Smiles By Smith Orthodontics can offer safer and more effective treatments tailored to each patient’s unique needs.
