CBCT Scanner in Regina
More Insight. More Precision. Better Planning.
Our CBCT scanner helps us see the structures beneath the surface — so we can plan complex treatments with greater confidence and accuracy.
CBCT stands for cone beam computed tomography. Unlike traditional 2D X-rays, a CBCT scan creates a full 3D image of your teeth, jaw, sinuses, nerves, and surrounding bone. It’s a valuable tool for diagnosis, treatment planning, and surgical preparation — especially when precision matters most.
When Do We Use A CBCT Scan?
Planning for dental implants
Evaluating wisdom teeth or impacted teeth
Diagnosing jaw joint (TMJ) issues
Assessing bone density or bone loss
Planning root canal treatment or endodontic surgery
Detecting cysts, lesions, or sinus-related concerns
It’s quick, non-invasive, and provides more information than standard dental X-rays — without the need for a hospital-based CT scan.
What To Expect During A Scan
The scan itself takes less than a minute. You’ll stand or sit while the machine rotates around your head, capturing images from multiple angles. The result is a high-resolution 3D model that allows us to examine everything in detail — from tiny nerve paths to bone thickness.
