A flat image only tells part of the story. Our CBCT technology captures your teeth, jaw, and airway in full 3D—giving our Brookfield team the complete picture needed to diagnose accurately and treat effectively. One quick scan. Zero guesswork.
advanced imaging for better care:
CBCT stands for Cone Beam Computed Tomography—a mouthful that translates to remarkably detailed 3D imaging of your entire oral and airway structure. While traditional dental X-rays show you a flat snapshot, CBCT rotates around your head and captures hundreds of images, then stitches them into a three-dimensional map. We can spin it, slice it, zoom in on a single tooth root or pull back to see your entire airway. For Brookfield patients dealing with unexplained jaw pain, airway concerns, or complex dental needs, this technology removes the guesswork and replaces it with answers.
Why Does 3D Imaging Matter?
Because problems hide. A standard X-ray might show healthy-looking teeth while missing the bone loss underneath, the airway restriction behind, or the jaw joint deterioration to the side. According to the FDA, CBCT imaging provides detailed 3D views impossible to obtain with conventional X-rays—making it indispensable for implant planning, airway evaluation, and diagnosing conditions that have stumped other Waukesha County providers. When your diagnosis is precise, your treatment works the first time.
Guessing games don't belong in healthcare. CBCT imaging gives you and our team a shared, crystal-clear view of what's actually happening inside your jaw, teeth, and airway. Whether you're planning orthodontic treatment, investigating chronic headaches, or finally getting to the bottom of breathing issues that affect your sleep, this scan delivers the clarity you need to move forward with confidence.
When symptoms persist without explanation and traditional X-rays reveal nothing useful, advanced 3D imaging changes everything. Our Waukesha County practice houses Wisconsin’s most sophisticated CBCT technology, delivering diagnostic precision that transforms how Brookfield families understand their oral and airway health. Standard dental radiographs capture shadows—flat, two-dimensional hints that force clinicians to guess at depth, density, and spatial relationships. Our Cone Beam CT eliminates that ambiguity entirely, rendering your anatomy in three dimensions with sub-millimeter accuracy. Whether you’re a New Berlin parent investigating why your child’s jaw clicks painfully during meals or a Wauwatosa professional whose morning headaches have defied diagnosis for years, this imaging technology reveals what’s been hiding in plain sight.
Our Brookfield CBCT protocol delivers more than pretty pictures—it provides actionable intelligence that shapes treatment decisions. Each scan captures your complete craniofacial structure: tooth roots and their relationship to nerve canals, sinus cavities and their drainage pathways, temporomandibular joints and their articular surfaces, and airway dimensions from nasal passages through the throat. The American Academy of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology recognizes CBCT as the standard of care for complex diagnostic scenarios, and our investment in this technology reflects our commitment to practicing at that standard. Brookfield patients receive their images immediately—no waiting days for results from an off-site radiologist. We review findings together on a large screen, rotating through your anatomy and pointing out exactly what we see, what it means, and what options exist to address it.
What separates Brookfield’s premier imaging center is our integration of CBCT findings into comprehensive airway-focused care. Southeastern Wisconsin families travel from Oconomowoc, Hartland, Pewaukee, and Menomonee Falls because our team doesn’t just take impressive scans—we connect those images to symptoms, breathing patterns, sleep quality, and long-term health trajectories. A narrow airway visible on CBCT explains the snoring your Elm Grove spouse complains about. Asymmetrical jaw development captured in 3D clarifies why your teenager’s bite feels off despite previous orthodontic work. Bone density measurements guide implant placement with millimeter precision, protecting nerves and maximizing success rates. The modest investment in proper imaging prevents misdiagnosis, failed treatments, and years of managing symptoms rather than solving problems. Brookfield patients leave understanding their anatomy in ways no mirror or standard X-ray could ever show them.
Wisconsin families complete their CBCT scan in under a minute and walk out with three-dimensional insight into their health. Schedule your consultation today and finally see the complete picture.
CBCT captures hundreds of images as it rotates around your head, then builds a detailed 3D model of your teeth, jaw, and airway. Traditional X-rays are flat—they can't show depth, spatial relationships, or structures hidden behind bone. Our Brookfield patients see the difference immediately when we display their scan on screen.
Anyone with complex dental needs, unexplained jaw pain, airway concerns, or treatment plans involving implants, orthodontics, or surgery. If you've bounced between Waukesha County providers without answers, CBCT often reveals what everyone else missed.
Yes. CBCT uses significantly less radiation than medical CT scanners—often comparable to a short flight or a few days of natural background exposure. The diagnostic value far outweighs the minimal exposure for patients who need this level of detail.
Your CBCT scan happens at your first appointment. Results are immediate—no waiting, no second visits just to hear what we found.
Flexible scheduling throughout the week at our Brookfield location. Early morning and after-work appointments available to fit your routine.
Transparent pricing with no hidden fees. We'll verify your insurance benefits and discuss payment options before you commit to anything.
ALL THE DETAILS
Stop guessing. Schedule your CBCT scan at our Brookfield office and see your teeth, jaw, and airway in full 3D detail. Whether you're visiting from Elm Grove, New Berlin, or anywhere in Waukesha County, answers are waiting.
