Our 3D dental X-ray system captures detailed images of your teeth, jaw, and surrounding bone structures in a matter of seconds. This technology significantly reduces the time required for imaging, allowing us to quickly obtain accurate, high-resolution images that are crucial for diagnosis and treatment planning. The speed of this process not only saves time but also enhances patient comfort by minimizing the duration of the X-ray procedure.
Why do we use 3-D imaging in our Rolling Meadows dental office?
One of the standout features of our 3D X-ray imaging is its ability to provide a comprehensive view of your teeth in relation to your head and neck bone structure. This holistic perspective is invaluable for accurately diagnosing complex dental issues, planning precise treatments, and ensuring optimal outcomes. Whether it’s assessing the position of impacted teeth, evaluating bone density for implants, or planning orthodontic treatments, the detailed images from our 3D X-ray system offer unmatched clarity and precision. This type of imaging also allows the patient to be involved in their diagnosis and treatment. Dr Sunkara can project the images onto a large screen that allows the patient to clearly see the health of their teeth and supporting structures and be included in the discussion of their own dental health, diagnosis and treatment.
In addition to its diagnostic capabilities, our 3D X-ray technology is designed with patient safety in mind. The system uses low-dose X-ray exposure, significantly reducing radiation levels compared to traditional X-ray methods. This ensures that our patients receive the safest possible care without compromising the quality of the images.
