You’re likely familiar with conventional 2D X-rays as those of the intraoral and extraoral variety are used by many dentists. But what about 3D X-rays?
3D dental imaging has grown in popularity in recent years due to its ability to more accurately show a patient’s entire mouth. When performed, dentists are able to better understand your teeth, muscles, nerves, and more thanks to a 3D rendition of the oral cavity.
