CT SCAN SERVICE
During some treatments and procedures, an X-Ray may not be sufficient. You may need a dental CT scan to show a more detailed image to give a better picture of your mouth, teeth, gums and jawbones.
Common cases when you may need a CT scan include:
● Ensuring the accurate placement of dental implants
● Oral surgery, for example, if you require bone grafting or regeneration for dental implants
● Evaluating your jaw, sinuses and nerve canals
● Detecting and treating tumours in your jaw
● Diagnosing Temporomandibular (TMJ) jaw and bite disorders
● Planning for any type of surgery including the removal of impacted teeth
● Orthodontic planning
Just like an X-Ray, a CT scan is taken whilst you are standing up and is completely painless.
