A complete picture of your teeth, jaws, and surrounding oral structures is important in both understanding the condition of your mouth, but also in their successful placement. That\u2019s why your dentist uses a device called a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dentalimplantsindfw.com\/our-technology.html\">cone beam scanner<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cone beam scanners create a 3D X-ray model to fully personalize your procedure to your own anatomy, so not only will your surgery be more precise, but your recovery will be smoother, too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benefits of a Cone Beam Scanner<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to providing clearer imaging, cone beam scanners also have lower radiation than traditional X-rays. This is because the beam on the X-ray is focused into a cone shape, thus reducing scatter radiation and producing a higher quality image than other devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Happens During a Cone Beam Scan?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At your cone beam scan, you don\u2019t need to do anything special or different to prepare. Just arrive at your dentist\u2019s office, and they will do the rest. You may need to remove any dentures, jewelry, glasses, hearing aids, or other dental appliances temporarily, but your scan will only take just a few minutes. You will need to remain completely still during the scan, as the machine\u2019s arm slowly rotates around you to capture your images. The images will then be layered on top of each other to create a full 3D picture of your mouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">After Your Cone Beam Scan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once your scan is complete, you will be able to return to your normal daily activities without any side effects or delays. Your dentist will then use the images to help plan your treatment, whether it\u2019s implant placement, a root canal, an extraction, a bone graft, or even for diagnostic purposes such as for temporomandibular joint dysfunction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, cone beam scans are a safe, effective way to get an accurate 3D X-ray image of your mouth. This is extremely important for your dentist when planning a more advanced dental procedure. It can not only help provide enhanced accuracy, but it can also help ensure that your healing process is a smooth as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Our Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dentalimplantsindfw.com\/our-office.html\">The DFW Dental Implant Center<\/a>, we offer a wide range of dental services in addition to Dental Implants.
