Dental cone beam 3D imaging has revolutionized diagnostics and treatment planning for implant cases, endodontics, orthodontics and many other clinical situations. These systems are able to quickly and accurately create a 3D computer model of the patient's intraoral anatomy, allowing clinicians to see more than ever before. Keeping the patient still during the imaging process is key and a seated patient can often stay still more easily than a standing patient. Here is a side-by-side look at some of the dental CBCT units designed for seated patient positioning.
