Cone Beam CT (CBCT)
An advanced 3D imaging technique that captures high-resolution images of the teeth, jaws, facial bones, and airway using a cone-shaped X-ray beam. CBCT provides precise anatomical visualisation with a lower radiation dose than conventional medical CT, supporting accurate evaluation for implants, endodontics, TMJ analysis, and airway assessment.
Together, these modalities enable Truescan Radiology to deliver a complete dental imaging solution, ensuring clarity, precision, and confidence in every stage of patient care.
