UNC researchers develop 3D dental X-ray method
Posted Oct 12, 2015
Dentists use X-rays to spot cavities and other problems with teeth, but standard images may miss problems that can become more serious. To help dentists and patients, researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill are developing a 3D X-ray that offers more detail. The X-rays work like a CT scan, allowing dentists to see slice-by-slice views of the mouth.
