Cone Beam Technology
|
Cone Beam technology allows Dr. Frishkey to better visualize his patients' dentition in 3D, without having to send patients to a lab for radiology scans. Being able to view an unprecedented level of anatomical detail helps Dr. Frishkey diagnose more accurately and treat with confidence. The capabilities of 3D imaging offer a wide range of diagnostic possibilities. This breakthrough technology provides unprecedented x-ray views of the oral cavity.
Periapical and panoramic radiography have been augmented by the recent introduction of high-resolution cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), allowing 3D assessment of third molars, tooth extraction, surgical planning, oral pathologies, fractures, and implant placement. Because the 9000 system focuses only on the area in need of diagnosis, the amount of radiation exposure is significantly reduced, delivering 10-30 times less exposure than other dental radiography systems.
