CBCT scanning is a type of advanced dental imaging that allows your dentist to view detailed images of your teeth, mouth, and jaw. This technology can diagnose a wide range of oral health issues, including impacted wisdom teeth, tumors, and osseointegrated implants. If you require more complex dental treatment, CBCT scanning may be the right option for you.
- A radiographic imaging technique that uses a cone-shaped beam of x-rays to capture high-resolution images of the teeth, jaws, and surrounding structures.
- An important tool for dental professionals because it can provide detailed information about the anatomy of the mouth that is not visible during a traditional intraoral or extraoral examination.
- Use the images for dental implants, TMJ disorders, impacted teeth, and other conditions.
The procedure of CBCT
Cone Beam Computed Tomography is a diagnostic tool used in dentistry that takes three-dimensional images of the teeth, gums, and bone. The procedure is simple and quick. First, the patient bites down on a plastic plate. Then, an x-ray beam is rotated around the head, and the images are captured on a computer. The images produced by CBCT are much more detailed than those produced by traditional x-rays. As a result, they can be used to diagnose problems that would not be visible on a traditional x-ray.
Benefits of CBCT
A big benefit of using CBCT is that we can see any dental issues that may not be seen during a regular examination.
The professionals who perform this service can give you a CBCT scan that most practitioners usually miss.
Another benefit is that we can assess bone thickness which is important when placing dental implants.
If you are considering dental implants, your dentist will order a CBCT scan in order to determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure.

And because CBCT uses such low doses of radiation, there is no need to worry about side effects or long-term health effects.

CBCT uses cone-shaped X-ray beams and computer processing to create detailed images of teeth, bones and soft tissues. A CBCT scan usually takes about 5 minutes.
What is the cost of CBCT?
The price of CBCT is typically around 500 AED. This technology is becoming increasingly popular due to its accuracy and relatively low cost.

I have been visiting the clinic for almost a year now. Dr Marwan worked 4 times on my teeth and saved me from 12 years of paid and wrong medical treatments. It is so great to feel human after year of suffering and insecurities. I have also got to be a patient of Dr Mahmoud Akrama 7 times who had worked me my filling, Botox, facial profile and advise and fat burning. Onyx is a complete medical center that service under one hive that patient does not need to move around from clinic to another. They work in a discreet location and rooms. Dr Marwa was also wonderful and I love how she cares about the brands she is using and being informative about what to use and avoid. She made me glow before a wedding people forgot the groom. My next service would be hair transplant, I met the dr and her advise was true to the fact. I have seen her work and it is true to human looks. I am working to move my physiotherapy to Onyx. Nothing is fake or plastic looking at Onyx. All natural preservation of years that life and mr gravity where not kind to.
