The role of CBCT in dental implant

Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is the superhero of modern dentistry, swooping in to save the day with its incredible three-dimensional imaging capabilities.

This revolutionary diagnostic tool has transformed the field of implant dentistry, allowing dentists to plan and execute procedures with unparalleled accuracy and precision.


With CBCT, dentists can see the jawbone in all its glory, identifying bone concavities and vital structures like never before. CBCT is a game-changer when it comes to implant dentistry. This incredible technology allows dentists to assess the width of the jawbone and evaluate bone density and quality, crucial factors in determining whether a patient is a suitable candidate for dental implants. Armed with this information, dentists can create customized treatment plans that are tailored to each patient's unique needs and circumstances.


CBCT also helps dentists determine the optimal location and angle for implant placement, which can make all the difference when it comes to the success of the procedure. By providing a comprehensive view of the jawbone, CBCT enables dentists to avoid vital structures like the sinus or inferior dental nerve and ensure that implants are placed in exactly the right spot.
