¿Qué Es una Radiografía Dental CBCT?

En este video, Alejandro, nuestro asistente de ortodoncia, explica cómo el CBCT permite detectar detalles ocultos en estructuras profundas y por qué esa precisión puede cambiar por completo la planificación de implantes y cirugías complejas.

El CBCT es un equipo avanzado de radiografía dental en 3D. Es una máquina de rayos X que nos permite ver con gran detalle el hueso, los nervios, los senos paranasales y otras estructuras que no se pueden evaluar con precisión en una radiografía 2D.

Antes, las radiografías dentales solo mostraban imágenes planas en 2D. Hoy, el CBCT genera imágenes tridimensionales, lo que ayuda a planificar tratamientos como implantes dentales, cirugías orales y procedimientos complejos con mayor seguridad y exactitud.

Este estudio también es útil cuando un paciente ha sufrido un accidente fuerte y se necesita analizar zonas profundas, como el hueso o la cercanía con los nervios, para tomar decisiones clínicas seguras.

El CBCT no reemplaza la consulta. Es una herramienta de diagnóstico que permite al dentista evaluar y planificar el tratamiento adecuado para cada paciente.
