CBCT (Cone Beam CT) Scan

Biological and Holistic Dentistry

Our CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) provides high-resolution 3D imaging of the teeth, jaws and surrounding structures. It supports accurate diagnosis and treatment planning in implant dentistry, endodontics, periodontal assessment, TMJ evaluation, sinus review and airway screening (when visible within the selected field of view).

From an integrative biological dentistry perspective, CBCT can also support assessment of jawbone health and chronic inflammatory patterns that may not be visible on 2D imaging.

Who is it for?

  • Patients booking directly for diagnostic imaging
  • Referring dentists/clinics who need CBCT imaging locally, without purchasing a scanner

Biological dentistry focus (when clinically indicated)

CBCT imaging can help:

  • Identify biologically relevant jawbone pathologies related to root canal treatment, extraction sites, and chronic residual infection
  • Understand jawbone sclerosis, hypodense lesions, and chronic silent inflammation patterns as expressions of impaired bone remodelling
  • Evaluate potential oral–systemic health implications of persistent jawbone inflammation
  • Utilise 3D CBCT imaging from an integrative biological dentistry perspective for improved diagnostic accuracy

What you receive (by email)

  • DICOM file set (for your dentist/clinic)
  • Selected key images (screenshots)
  • If selected: a structured written report, signed by a Dental Surgeon (Médico Dentista) at Anne Swart Clinic

Booking

Appointments are preferred to minimise waiting time. Walk-ins may be possible during opening hours, subject to availability.

To book or refer a patient, please contact us via our Contact page.

For referring clinicians

We accept external referrals for CBCT imaging with or without a detailed report. Please include:

  • Clinical question / indication
  • Region of interest (e.g., maxilla/mandible; TMJ; sinuses; airway if required)
  • Relevant history (implants, endodontics, previous surgery, symptoms)

Important notes (scope & limitations)

CBCT provides excellent hard-tissue detail but has limitations for soft-tissue assessment. Findings should be correlated clinically.

If selected, the report is a dental clinical interpretation of CBCT findings within the acquired field of view and is signed by a Dental Surgeon (Médico Dentista).
