X-ray diagnostics in dentistry<\/h2>\n

X-ray diagnostics have always been standard in oral and maxillofacial surgery and dentistry. Conventional X-rays show a two-dimensional image of the conditions in the oral cavity. These 2D X-ray images still represent an important basis for the assessment of teeth and jaws.<\/p>\n

However, X-ray diagnostics in dentistry has developed enormously in recent years and digital volume tomography (DVT), a very modern and efficient procedure, has been available for some time with which 3D images of teeth and jaws are also possible. 3D X-ray opens up far-reaching possibilities for planning complex dental and maxillofacial surgery.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

In our specialist practice for oral and maxillofacial surgery in Berlin Mitte we have both conventional 2D X-ray technology and a digital volume tomograph for the acquisition of 3D X-ray images as well as many years of extensive experience in X-ray diagnostics. Which imaging procedure is used depends on the individual situation of each patient. Depending on the initial situation, we decide when a 2D image and when a 3D X-ray image is required.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

When do 2D X-rays make sense?<\/h2>\n

In many cases, the doctor does not need 3D images to make a reliable diagnosis and plan the treatment. Conventional 2D X-rays are therefore sufficient in most cases. We also rely on digital methods for 2D X-rays, in which the radiation exposure is about 80% lower than with classical, analogue X-ray methods.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
