Precision Dental Images
Made Easier, Faster, and Safer
Advanced
BC Dental Diagnostics is the only cone-beam CT imaging service in
British Columbia operating in compliance with the Position Statement of
the Canadian Academy of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology as published in
the Journal of the Canadian Dental Association. Every scan has the
exposure parameters determined by a fully trained graduate of an
accredited post-graduate Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology program to
ensure that optimal imaging and patient exposure is maintained. A report
of significant findings for the entire scanned region is included at no
extra cost for every scan performed. Identification of the mandibular
canal on hard or soft copy is also included.
Use of cone-beam imaging for implant planning and impacted
teeth provides valuable information to allow faster and more accurate
treatment. The medicolegal requirement for full interpretation of the
entire scanned volume is not passed on to the referring dentist thus
allowing better use of the referring dentist’s valuable time.
