What Is a Green X CBCT?
At Pruitt & Earp Dentistry, we believe in using the best technology to provide our patients with safer, faster, and more accurate care. One of the advanced tools we use is the Green X CBCT scanner. This machine is often called a “3D dental X-ray” because it gives us a complete three-dimensional view of your teeth, gums, jaw, and surrounding structures.
Why Is It Called “Green”?
The Green X CBCT is designed with your safety in mind. The “Green” name comes from its ability to capture incredibly detailed images while using a lower level of radiation compared to many other scanners. This means you get the information your dentist needs while staying safe and protected.
How Does It Work?
The process is simple, comfortable, and quick. You will stand or sit still while the machine gently rotates around your head. In just a few seconds, the Green X CBCT creates a complete 3D image of your mouth and jaw. The scan is painless and stress-free.
Benefits for Our Patients
- Safer Imaging: The Green X uses a much lower radiation dose than traditional 3D scanners.
- Crystal-Clear 3D Views: Your dentist can see every detail of your teeth, roots, nerves, and jaw.
- Better Treatment Planning: Whether for implants, root canals, orthodontics, or TMJ care, we can plan with precision.
- Quick and Comfortable: The scan only takes seconds and requires no discomfort.
- One Scan, Multiple Views: With some Green X systems, we can capture both a panoramic and 3D image at the same time, saving you extra visits and exposure.
When We Use the Green X CBCT
Your dentist may recommend a Green X CBCT scan for:
- Planning a dental implant
- Evaluating a complicated root canal
- Checking the jaw joint (TMJ) or sinuses
- Preparing for braces or Invisalign®
- Finding hidden cracks, fractures, or infections
