3D CT in dentistry works on the principle of classic CT but with reduced radiation exposure. Modern 3D CT provides much more information, in much better resolution than conventional X-ray imaging.

CT scan provides accurate information on the number and quality of bones, including the position of the bottom of the jaw cavity and the placement of important nerves.

It helps us to follow the shape of the tooth root, anatomical deviations of the root canals, which cannot be seen on a classic X-ray image.
