Use case
CBCT viewer for orthodontic diagnosis
Assess airway, impacted canines, root proximity, and skeletal asymmetry in any browser — then share cephalometric findings with the orthodontist or lab instantly.
Ortho diagnosis needs CBCT. Workflow shouldn't need a courier.
CBCT changed orthodontic diagnosis — airway volume, impacted canine location, root proximity before SARPE. But the files still arrive on CDs.
CBCTHub skips the CD. The imaging center emails a link. The orthodontist opens it in their browser and moves on.
The ortho CBCT toolkit
Airway visualization
Scroll sagittal slices through the oropharynx to assess airway patency and screen for OSA risk before planning orthognathic cases.
Impacted canine localization
Buccal or palatal? Root resorption on the neighbor? Pan, axial, and cross-sections side by side show it in seconds.
Root proximity and resorption
Identify short roots, resorbed apices, and proximity between roots before deciding on mini-implants or SARPE.
Skeletal asymmetry assessment
Compare left-right condyles and mandibular ramus lengths. Spot asymmetry that changes treatment planning.
Share with the lab
Send the CBCT link to the lab fabricating your aligners or expanders. No portal, no login — just a URL.
Ortho workflow
- 1Receive the CBCT link from the imaging center.
- 2Open in Chrome, Safari, Edge — anywhere.
- 3Scroll MPR planes; measure airway and tooth angulations.
- 4Export a PDF report with screenshots attached to the patient chart.
- 5Forward the link to the lab or second opinion.
Frequently asked questions
Can I measure airway volume?
You can scroll the airway in all three planes and estimate the narrowest anterior-posterior dimension. Full volumetric airway segmentation is not automated.
Does it work for pediatric CBCTs (low-dose)?
Yes. Any standard DICOM file works, including low-dose protocols from Planmeca ProMax, Vatech Green, and Carestream CS 9600.
Can I take cephalometric points?
You can place measurements and annotations on any slice. Automated ceph analysis with landmark detection is on the roadmap.
Other CBCT use cases
Implant planning
Plan implants in the browser with sub-millimeter measurements, bone-density estimation, and cross-sections anywhere along the arch — then share the plan with the surgeon via link.
Endodontics
Spot extra canals, peri-apical lesions, vertical root fractures, and resorption in any browser. Share findings with the referring dentist in seconds — not days.
Oral surgery
Plan third-molar extractions, bone grafts, TMJ assessments, and pathology workups in the browser. Share the plan with the referring dentist or the anesthesia team in seconds.
Works with every major CBCT scanner
Carestream, Planmeca, Vatech, Sirona, Morita, NewTom, Instrumentarium, PreXion, DENTSPLY and KaVo — any scanner that exports standard DICOM.
