Cone beam technology is becoming more popular in certain areas, especially in dental imaging. It's becoming essential for many dental procedures, marking a significant development in intraoral imaging. However, the upfront cost for a cone beam device is quite high, typically around $100,000. Setting up the device might also require additional office space and remodeling. Dentists need to carefully evaluate if their practice involves procedures that benefit from cone beam imaging before deciding to make such a significant investment.
Increasing Use of CBCT in Orthodontic Diagnosis and Treatment Planning Driving More Opportunities for the Market In the last decade, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) has become crucial in orthodontics. It's recommended in cases where conventional radiography can't provide enough diagnostic information, such as for cleft palate patients, assessment of unerupted tooth position, and planning orthognathic surgery. The use of CBCT in dentistry and orthodontics is growing, offering precise measurements, enhanced localization of impacted teeth, visualization of airway abnormalities, and more. This increased use in orthodontics is contributing to the growth of the CBCT dental imaging market in Europe.
Increasing Use of CBCT Imaging in Cosmetic Dentistry Treatments Cosmetic dentistry, aimed at enhancing overall facial beauty, is a growing market. CBCT imaging technology is used in conjunction with 3D clinical photography for precise diagnosis, planning, and treatment in cosmetic dentistry. The use of CBCT in oral and maxillofacial surgery by institutes like Inland Institute Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery is driving the CBCT dental imaging market in Europe.
Increasing Adoption of CBCT by Healthcare Professionals In the past decade, digital imaging has become crucial for oral health professionals, especially in the CBCT imaging market.
Practices in Europe and North America are increasingly adopting CBCT units. European researchers highlight the benefits of CBCT over routine dental radiographs in various diagnoses.
