Effective Radiation Doses for the Planmeca ProMax 3D
Dentists are bound by the ALARA principle to capture patient images with radiation doses that are as low as reasonably achievable. This helps to mitigate the potential for future health concerns for your patients. As this is a large concern for some patients, they may decide to refuse a dental cone beam scan, therefore making you unable to accurately and efficiently diagnose them and develop a treatment plan.
