3D Cone Beam CT Imaging

Precise Paranasal Sinus imaging, from cavity to canal.

A Paranasal Sinus (PNS) CBCT scan gives your dentist, oral surgeon, implantologist, or ENT specialist a complete 3D view of your sinuses, nasal cavity, and facial bones — captured in under a minute.

What Is A PNS CBCT Scan?

One rotation. Hundreds of images. A complete 3D sinus map.

A Paranasal Sinus (PNS) CBCT scan is an advanced Cone Beam Computed Tomography exam that produces high-resolution, three-dimensional images of the paranasal sinuses, nasal cavity, and surrounding facial bones — far beyond what a conventional 2D X-ray can show.

Because the sinuses sit directly above the upper jaw and teeth, sinus health and dental treatment are closely connected. At Raydent — Oral & Maxillofacial Imaging Centre, our PNS CBCT imaging supports dentists, oral and maxillofacial surgeons, implantologists, orthodontists, periodontists, and ENT specialists with accurate, reliable diagnostic detail.

Why It Matters

Where sinus anatomy and dental care meet

Diseases affecting the sinuses can influence dental treatment planning, and certain dental conditions can affect
the sinus region in return — making an accurate 3D map essential.

Clearer Diagnosis

Detailed anatomical detail helps clinicians identify sinus conditions and bone irregularities that 2D imaging can miss.

Bone Structure Insight

Precise evaluation of bone height and density supports safer, more predictable surgical and implant planning.

Safer Procedures

Knowing sinus anatomy in advance reduces surgical risk and helps clinicians plan the safest treatment path.

Clinical Applications

Recommended across five specialities

A Paranasal Sinus CBCT scan is a shared diagnostic tool across dentistry, oral surgery, ENT, and orthodontics.

01 · ENT & Sinus

Sinus Evaluation

Sinus Anatomy AssessmentMaps the full architecture of all four sinus pairs for a baseline anatomical reference.
Inflammation DetectionIdentifies swelling and fluid buildup that signal active sinus inflammation.
Sinusitis EvaluationDistinguishes acute from chronic sinus infection patterns for targeted treatment.
Mucosal ThickeningFlags early lining changes often linked to allergies or chronic irritation.
Cyst & Polyp DetectionSpots soft-tissue growths that may obstruct sinus drainage pathways.
02 · Implant Dentistry

Dental Implant Planning

Maxillary Sinus EvaluationConfirms sinus floor position relative to the planned implant site.
Bone Height AssessmentMeasures available bone to determine implant length and angulation.
Sinus Lift PlanningGuides safe grafting when bone height is insufficient for standard placement.
Implant Site AnalysisEvaluates bone density and quality to predict long-term implant stability.
Anatomical VariationsDetects septa, narrow ridges, or unusual sinus shapes before surgery begins.
03 · Surgery

Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery

Pre-Operative PlanningGives surgeons a precise 3D roadmap before complex procedures.
Facial Trauma EvaluationReveals fractures and displaced bone that 2D X-rays often miss.
Jaw & Facial Bone PathologyAssesses structural abnormalities affecting jaw function and alignment.
Cysts & Benign LesionsLocates and sizes growths for accurate surgical margin planning.
04 · ENT

ENT Assessment

Chronic Symptom InvestigationHelps trace the anatomical source of ongoing sinus-related symptoms.
Nasal Cavity EvaluationProvides a clear view of nasal passage structure and airflow paths.
Obstruction AssessmentIdentifies structural blockages contributing to breathing difficulty.
FESS Planning SupportSupplies the anatomical detail needed for functional endoscopic sinus surgery.
05 · Orthodontics

Orthodontic & Dental Assessment

Teeth–Sinus RelationshipMaps how upper molar roots relate to the maxillary sinus floor.
Impacted Teeth EvaluationTracks teeth extending toward or into the sinus cavity.
Pre-Procedure AssessmentSupports planning before complex orthodontic or restorative work.

The Procedure

What happens during the scan

A quick, comfortable, and completely painless examination — most appointments finish in just a few minutes.

1

Positioning

You'll be comfortably positioned in the CBCT scanner by our imaging team.

2

Head Stabilization

Your head is gently stabilized to keep every image sharp and accurate.

3

Single Rotation

The scanner rotates once around your head — no repositioning needed.

4

Image Capture

Hundreds of images are captured in approximately 20–40 seconds.

5

3D Reconstruction

Advanced software builds detailed 3D volumes ready for clinical review.

Is a PNS CBCT scan safe?

Yes. CBCT uses a significantly lower radiation dose than a conventional medical CT scan, while still producing highly detailed diagnostic images.

  • Every scan follows the ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) principle.
  • Internationally accepted radiation safety standards are followed throughout.
  • Image quality is never compromised for patient safety, or vice versa.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Your dentist, oral surgeon, implantologist, or ENT specialist may recommend this scan if you have chronic sinus problems, require dental implants in the upper jaw, need a sinus lift procedure, have facial trauma, or require detailed sinus evaluation.
The scan itself usually takes 20–40 seconds, and the complete appointment is generally finished within a few minutes.
No. The examination is completely painless, non-invasive, and does not require injections or recovery time.
Yes. A PNS CBCT scan is highly valuable for evaluating the maxillary sinus, available bone height, and anatomical structures before implant placement or sinus lift surgery.
