Dental X-ray and 3D CBCT in Graz

Which X-ray do I need?
The type and area of the image depend on the question raised by your dentist or specialist. Please bring your referral with you – it determines which image is taken.Dental X-ray and panoramic X-ray
Two-dimensional overview and detailed images.
Panoramic dental X-ray (OPG)
An overview image of all teeth, both jaws and the jaw joints in a single picture.
Cephalometric X-ray
A lateral image of the skull used for measurements in orthodontic treatment.
3D X-ray with CBCT
CBCT stands for cone-beam computed tomography: a 3D X-ray technique for teeth, jaws, sinuses, the facial skeleton, jaw joints and the junction between the skull and cervical spine.
3D CBCT of the upper or lower jaw
A three-dimensional view of teeth, jawbone and nerve canals – for example to check for extra (supernumerary) teeth.
CBCT before dental implants
A planning basis for dental implants: bone volume and the position of the nerve canals become visible.
CBCT of the sinuses
A three-dimensional view of the nasal cavity, maxillary and other sinuses.
CBCT of the facial skeleton
A three-dimensional view of the bones of the facial skeleton, such as the eye sockets, cheekbone and nasal structure.
CBCT of the jaw joints
A three-dimensional view of the bony jaw joints, for example for jaw joint complaints or treatment planning.
CBCT of the craniocervical junction
A three-dimensional view of the junction between the skull and cervical spine, including the top two vertebrae (atlas and axis).
How much radiation exposure is involved?
- Panoramic dental X-ray: typically about 0.01 mSv, equivalent to around 1.5 days of natural background radiation.
- Dental and jaw CBCT: depending on the size of the scanned area, typically about 0.05 mSv (roughly 0.02 to 0.2 mSv), equivalent to around 7.5 days of natural background radiation.
These are typical reference values. The actual dose depends, among other things, on the area examined, the number of images taken, body build, the equipment and the examination protocol.
Pregnancy: If you are pregnant or think you might be pregnant, please let us know before the examination.

Frequently asked questions about CBCT and dental X-rays
CBCT is a highly precise 3D X-ray technique designed specifically for the head and jaw area. It provides a three-dimensional view of bones, teeth and nerve canals, with significantly less radiation exposure than a conventional CT scan.
Typical uses include planning dental implants, assessing extra tooth buds in children, assessing bony changes (CBCT cannot rule out tumours), and imaging the jaw structures as well as the nasal cavity and sinuses. We also use CBCT to produce three-dimensional images of the facial skeleton, the jaw joints and the junction between the skull and cervical spine (craniocervical junction).
Yes, alongside 3D CBCT, we also offer digital 2D dental X-rays, such as panoramic X-rays (OPG) and cephalometric X-rays (Ceph) for orthodontic planning.
