Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is a non-invasive, precise examination that allows for the creation of a three-dimensional image of all facial structures, such as the jaw, chin, temporomandibular joints, and paranasal sinuses. To perform this examination, X-ray radiation is used in the form of a cone-shaped beam, with a lower dosage compared to other tomographic techniques. CBCT examination enables a three-dimensional and highly accurate analysis of facial structures.
CBCT is performed with a referral from a physician. Among typical indications, the following should be mentioned:
Comprehensive initial diagnosis and treatment planning before orthodontic treatment.
