Service Providers for CBCT Scan of TMJ
A CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) scan of the TMJ (temporomandibular joint) is a 3D imaging procedure used to assess the structure and function of the jaw joint. It is typically performed to diagnose conditions like TMJ disorders, arthritis, joint degeneration, or misalignment. During the procedure, the patient’s head is positioned in the CBCT machine, which rotates around the jaw to capture detailed, high-resolution images of the TMJ, bones, and surrounding tissues. No special preparation is usually required, though you may need to remove any metal objects. The procedure is painless and provides valuable information to guide treatment for TMJ-related issues.
