Hello, For some treatment and checkup, I have had 2 cbct's already for my jaw. How far is it suggested to have another cbct if required. How much damage could be done by a 3rd cbct being exposed to radiation.

Hello there. I can understand your concern. When were the CBCT done? It depends on what kind of problem you have and when you got the CT done. There is not much harm in getting the CT done. The harm is only if you are getting exposed to the radiation daily. Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain. Bangalore.
