CBCT IMAGING

Our office features the latest Kodak Carestream 3D-Scan technology, designed specifically for endodontics. This low-radiation CBCT scan provides a three-dimensional view of the tooth and surrounding bone, significantly enhancing our ability to detect fractures, missed canals, and bone loss, as well as to plan for surgical or retreatment procedures. The detailed imaging greatly improves diagnostic and treatment planning accuracy. Dr. Jakob has researched and published on the topic of “The use of 3D computed tomography in the treatment planning of failing root canals.” This advanced technology allows us to determine if a tooth can be saved with a simple scan, eliminating the need for exploratory surgery and ensuring optimal treatment outcomes.
