The Importance of 3D CBCT Imaging
See What Matters
Our in-house 3D CBCT imaging provides a high-resolution view of your airway health, enabling precise analysis of airway volume and morphology. Low airway volume is a known risk factor for sleep-disordered breathing and can be exacerbated by enlarged tonsils or other pathologies. This detailed imaging helps us understand your unique needs, guiding personalized treatment plans
Screening for Breathing Habits
Understanding Your Breathing Patterns
Proper nasal breathing is essential for optimal airway health, while mouth breathing can indicate potential issues. Our screenings assess your breathing habits, sleep hygiene, and identify any signs that may contribute to compromised airway function, helping you achieve better overall health.
Identifying Obstructions with 3D Anatomy Knowledge
Pinpointing the Problem
Using 3D airway knowledge, we thoroughly assess your anatomy to screen for potential obstructions that impact airflow. Whether it's the location of a blockage or a structural concern, we identify precise areas that may require intervention to optimize your breathing.
Screening for Lesions and Other Findings
A Holistic Approach to Airway Health
Our airway screenings also include a check for lesions, incidental findings, and other potential concerns that may impact your airway health. This comprehensive approach ensures we catch any possible issues early, providing you with a proactive path to improved health.
