Premium Dental CT (CBCT)

Medicover's dentistry now has access to one of the world's most advanced, multi-award winning (Cellerant Class of Technology, Edison Awards) dental CT and panoramic X-ray equipment, the premium CBCT device, with which most CT and X-ray scans are done worldwide.

CT combines traditional two-dimensional panoramic technology and CBCT (Cone Beam CT) imaging to create personalized imaging along with modern 3D face scanning.

Cone Beam CT (CBCT) is a three-dimensional digital X-ray imaging procedure during which the most detailed imaging is created about the bone structure and teeth under low radiation exposure.

• Personalized radiation exposure: based on the structure of the patient’s jaw, the CBCT device determines the required amount of radiation exposure.
• Significantly lower radiation exposure: half of the radiation dose emitted during a normal dental CT affects the patient during the examination.
• It provides the most detailed image in the best resolution.
• Accurate planning: with the help of 3D software, dental surgery (implantation) can be planned right after the imaging. Afterwards, the patient will know what kind of procedure is needed.

• Compared to traditional CT, smaller amount of artifacts are produced around the metals (e.g. dental fillings, crowns, implants, ear implants, face and jaw fixation metals).
• In case of repeated examinations, the risk of damaging radiation-sensitive tissues (such as the eyes) is significantly reduced.
• At least as good spatial resolution in any plane as with traditional CT.
• Fast test time of 30-40 seconds in sitting or standing position in open space (unlike the tube-like closed space of traditional CT).
