Small FOV · 3D Dental Imaging

Precision imaging for one quadrant, not the whole jaw.

A Quadrant / Sectional CBCT Scan gives your dentist a sharp, high-resolution 3D view of exactly the area that needs treatment — with a smaller Field of View and lower radiation exposure than a full-jaw scan.

Only the clinically relevant quadrant is imaged — the rest of the jaw stays outside the radiation field.

Why It Matters

Why Choose a Quadrant / Sectional CBCT Scan?

Not every dental condition requires imaging of the entire jaw. A sectional scan focuses only on the affected region, so your clinician can study complex anatomy in fine detail while keeping radiation exposure to a minimum.

Targeted, not generalized

Imaging is limited to the specific tooth or region your dentist is investigating, giving a clearer, more focused diagnostic picture.

Lower radiation dose

A smaller Field of View means a smaller exposed volume — ideal for patients who need imaging without unnecessary radiation.

Fast turnaround

Acquisition takes seconds and the full appointment is typically complete within minutes — no waiting rooms, no downtime.

Sharper anatomical detail

Focused imaging resolves fine structures — extra canals, small fractures, subtle bone changes — that wider scans can blur.

Radiation Safety

Is a Quadrant / Sectional CBCT Scan Safe?

Yes. Because the scan uses a small Field of View, only the required area is exposed to radiation — reducing overall dose while preserving excellent diagnostic image quality.

At Raydent, every examination follows the ALARA principle — As Low As Reasonably Achievable — alongside international radiation safety standards.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a Quadrant Scan and a Full CBCT Scan?

A Quadrant or Sectional Scan focuses on a specific area of the mouth, while a Full CBCT Scan captures the entire jaws and surrounding structures. Your dentist will recommend the most appropriate scan based on your clinical needs.

Who needs a Quadrant / Sectional CBCT Scan?

Patients requiring evaluation for root canal treatment, single-tooth implants, localized infections, dental trauma, impacted teeth, or periodontal conditions may benefit from this focused scan.

How long does the scan take?

The scan itself usually takes 20–40 seconds, and the complete appointment is typically finished within a few minutes.

Is the procedure painful?

No. The scan is completely painless, non-invasive, and requires no injections or recovery time.
