 Tooth pain or sensitivity
 Gum disease
 Jaw pain or swelling
 Wisdom tooth evaluation
 Before procedures like implants or braces

What is the difference between a CBCT scan and a regular dental X-ray?
A CBCT scan offers 3D imaging and provides more detailed views of bone structure, nerves, and sinuses—ideal for advanced procedures. In contrast, regular dental X-rays are 2D images used for basic diagnosis.

How long does a dental radiology procedure take?
Most dental X-rays take only a few minutes. CBCT scans may take 10–15 minutes. The procedures are quick, painless, and non-invasive.

Is oral diagnosis necessary during every dental visit?
