Clearwater Periodontist: Our Technology: Green CT Scan 3 D Imaging

GREEN CT SCAN ​3D IMAGING


In the past, traditional dental x-rays were only able to provide limited information about the condition of your teeth and jaw bone. Advances in technology now allow Dr. Britten to see fine detailed tooth and jaw anatomy to diagnose conditions that may have been previously hard to detect.

At Britten Periodontics & Implant Dentistry we are proud to offer the only dental 3D CT Scan that is FDA approved for use on pediatric patients as it delivers the lowest dose of radiation possible on both children and adults. The VATECH PAX-i3D GREEN cone beam CT Scanner offers fantastic imaging detail and is the only cone beam system considered a “Green CT” due to its extremely low dose, equivalent to only a short time out in the sun. This technology also assists in the digital planning of dental implants for precise accuracy, safety and optimal results. It can also assist in planning for bone grafting, tooth extractions, particularly third molars (wisdom teeth) and suspected pathology such as infected cracked teeth or impacted teeth.
