Cone beam technology provides a 3D digital tomographic view of the patient's area of interest. While a traditional x-ray is only two-dimensional, cone beam systems allow our doctors to visualize a full 360 degree view of the tooth and all surrounding areas. 3D cone beam images offers nearly limitless views of the teeth while using less radiation than traditional medical CT technology. This new technology is fast, simple and painless, providing many wonderful benefits that were unavailable only a few years ago.
