3D Cone-Beam Dental Scan (CBCT)

Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a three-dimensional dental scan that shows the teeth, jawbone and surrounding structures in detail, taken on-site at Dentista.pl. It underpins precise planning for implants, complex root canals and oral surgery, where a flat X-ray is not enough. The clinic also offers panoramic radiographs and single spot X-rays, so diagnostics and treatment planning can be completed in one place.

Cone-beam computed tomography is a specialised form of dental imaging that captures a three-dimensional view of the teeth, roots, jawbones, sinuses and nerve canals from a single rotating scan. Unlike a conventional two-dimensional X-ray, a CBCT lets the clinician assess bone height and width, the exact position of anatomical structures and the internal anatomy of teeth, which is why it is central to planning implants, assessing impacted teeth, investigating complex root canal anatomy and preparing for oral surgery. At Dentista.pl this imaging is performed in-house, so a scan can be taken and reviewed as part of the same treatment pathway rather than referring patients elsewhere. The clinic's diagnostic options span the full range: a focused 3D cone-beam scan for detailed planning, a panoramic (pantomographic) radiograph that shows all the teeth and both jaws on one image for an overview, and small intra-oral spot X-rays for examining an individual tooth. Modern cone-beam units are designed to capture the needed detail at a comparatively low radiation dose for the information they provide, and scans are taken only where clinically justified. Having imaging available on site supports the clinic's emphasis on thorough diagnostics and clearly planned treatment. CBCT is used for patients being assessed for implants, surgical extractions, endodontic problems or other cases where three-dimensional detail is needed; the dentist determines which type of image is appropriate for the clinical question.
