Cutting-Edge 3D Dental Imaging in Montgomery

At Mathews Dental, we are committed to providing the highest quality of care by staying on the forefront of dental technology. One of the most advanced tools we utilize is 3D imaging, also known as Cone Beam CT (CBCT) scans. This technology allows us to create highly detailed, three-dimensional images of your teeth, bone, and soft tissue, ensuring a more accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.

What Is 3D Dental Imaging?

Traditional dental X-rays provide limited, two-dimensional images of your teeth and jaw. While useful, they may not always capture the full scope of a dental issue. 3D imaging offers a comprehensive, 360-degree view of your entire mouth, allowing us to see more details and make more informed decisions regarding your dental care. This advanced imaging technology is particularly beneficial in complex dental cases such as:

• Dental implants
• Root canal therapy
• Orthodontics
• Jawbone assessments
• TMJ disorders

Benefits of 3D Imaging

Choosing a dental practice that offers 3D imaging provides you with several key advantages:

• Enhanced Accuracy: The high-resolution, detailed images allow us to diagnose dental problems more precisely, leading to better treatment outcomes.
• Comprehensive View: 3D imaging reveals the entire structure of your teeth, bones, nerves, and soft tissue, giving us a complete picture of your oral health.
• Minimized Risks: This technology enables us to anticipate potential complications before they arise, especially in surgical procedures like dental implants.
• Faster Diagnosis: 3D images are available almost instantly, reducing wait times and allowing for more efficient treatment planning.
• Low Radiation Exposure: Our 3D imaging technology uses a lower dose of radiation than traditional X-rays, making it safer for our patients.

How 3D Imaging Enhances Your Dental Care

At Mathews Dental, we use 3D imaging in a variety of treatments to ensure the best results:

1. Dental Implant Planning: When placing dental implants, it’s crucial to understand the exact dimensions and density of your jawbone. 3D imaging provides detailed visuals, allowing us to place the implant in the most optimal position for longevity and stability.
2. Root Canal Therapy: For root canal treatments, 3D imaging helps us to view the internal structure of your tooth, including root canals and nerves, ensuring that no area is overlooked during treatment.
3. Orthodontics: If you or your child needs orthodontic treatment, 3D imaging allows us to assess jaw alignment and tooth position with greater accuracy, helping to design the most effective treatment plan.
4. Oral Surgery: Whether extracting impacted wisdom teeth or treating TMJ disorders, 3D imaging helps us to see the full extent of the issue and plan accordingly, reducing risks and improving recovery times.
