What Is a CBCT Scan in Chandigarh and Why Is It Crucial for Implant Planning?

When it comes to dental implants, precision is everything — and that precision starts with proper planning. One of the most essential tools in advanced dental implantology is the CBCT scan.

At Advanced Dental Care Center, Chandigarh, we use CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) for all implant planning. But what exactly is it? And why does it matter so much?

Let’s break it down.

📸 What is a CBCT Scan?

A CBCT scan is a type of 3D X-ray that gives a detailed, three-dimensional view of your teeth, jawbone, nerves, and sinuses.

Unlike regular dental X-rays (which are 2D), CBCT provides:

• Accurate bone density and volume information

• Location of nerves and sinus cavities

• A full map of your mouth’s anatomy

Think of it as the GPS for your dental implants — helping your dentist place them in the safest and most effective way possible.

🦷 Why Is CBCT Crucial for Implant No Planning?

✅ 1. Accurate Assessment of Bone

CBCT shows the quality and quantity of bone available — which determines whether an implant can be placed and if bone grafting is needed.

✅ 2. Avoiding Vital Structures

It identifies nerve canals, blood vessels, and sinuses, allowing us to plan your implant placement safely and avoid complications.

✅ 3. Customized Implant Placement

With 3D data, we can virtually place the implant before surgery, adjusting the angle and position for maximum stability and aesthetics.

✅ 4. Faster, Safer Surgery

CBCT-guided implants are more predictable, less invasive, and heal faster due to precise planning.
