Why endodontists rely on 75-micron small-FOV CBCT for complex root canals
Periapical 2D X-rays compress three-dimensional roots, metal posts, and cheek bone into one shadow. Focused endodontic CBCT isolates individual roots slice by slice at 0.075 mm resolution.
Scan Protocol Summary
- Field of View: Ø 6×6 cm Focused Endodontic FOV · 75 μm Ultra-High Resolution + CALM™ + ARA™
- Transparent Price: $49 per scan (3D CBCT or 2D panoramic priced separately)
- Included Delivery: Uncompressed DICOM + viewer emailed to your dentist in ~1 minute
- Optional Add-ons: USB flash drive (+$10) · Written radiology report (+$150)
Early Periapical Lesions, Resorption & Bone Loss Patterns
Detects J-shaped bone defects associated with vertical root fractures, internal/external root resorption, and hidden periapical pathology masked by thick cortical bone.
Motion-Free & Scatter-Reduced Around Crowns and Posts
Planmeca CALM™ cancels microscopic patient movement while ARA™ reduces flare from gutta-percha, metal posts, and zirconia/PFM crowns.

Finnish Engineering · Helsinki, Finland 
SL Dental uses flagship Finnish-made Planmeca Viso® G7 3D technology
With over 50 years of Finnish dental engineering excellence, the Planmeca Viso® G7 represents the pinnacle of cone beam 3D imaging. Because our Santa Monica center is 100% dedicated to diagnostic imaging, every patient benefits from hospital-grade 3D clarity at a flat $49 price.
Planmeca Ultra Low Dose™ Protocol
Scientifically proven 3D imaging algorithms reduce effective patient radiation dose by up to 77% - often lower than a standard 2D panoramic X-ray - strictly adhering to the ALARA principle without sacrificing diagnostic detail.
Planmeca CALM™ & ARA™ Artifact Removal
Intelligent movement correction (CALM™) cancels out slight patient motion so retakes are rarely needed, while Metal Artifact Reduction (ARA™) eliminates streaks around existing crowns, bridges, and titanium implants.
Romexis® 3D Implantology & Universal DICOM
Creates ready-to-use 3D volumes for virtual implant placement, nerve tracing, and surgical guides in Planmeca Romexis®, NobelClinician, 3Shape, Blue Sky Plan, and all standard dental CAD/CAM suites.
5 Customizable 3D Fields of View (FOV)
From a single root canal to the entire craniofacial skull - all $49 per scan
Planmeca Viso® G7 adjusts the 3D volume freely from Ø 3×3 cm up to Ø 30×30 cm so your dentist gets the exact anatomy needed with minimal radiation exposure.

Frequently Asked Questions
Root Canal & Endo 3D CBCT Scan — Common Questions
Does SL Dental offer true high-resolution small-FOV endodontic CBCT?
Yes. Our Planmeca Viso G7 captures focused Ø 6×6 cm endodontic volumes at an ultra-fine 75 μm (0.075 mm) voxel size with CALM motion correction and ARA metal artifact reduction — for the same flat $49 price.
Can a CBCT scan show why a previous root canal still hurts?
Endodontists frequently order small-FOV CBCT on previously treated teeth to check for untreated fourth (MB2) canals, persistent periapical infection near the sinus, perforations, or localized vertical bone loss.
How fast will my endodontist receive the scan?
Within roughly one minute of completing your scan, our system emails the uncompressed DICOM download and viewer link straight to your endodontist.
