Dental diagnosis in Argüelles, Madrid: the foundation of successful treatment
An accurate dental diagnosis is the first step in choosing the right treatment. At Debod Dental Clinic we use a 3D intraoral scanner and digital X-rays for a complete assessment.
A complete and accurate dental diagnosis is the foundation of any successful treatment. Without a correct diagnosis, treatment can be inadequate, incomplete or even counterproductive.
At Debod Dental Clinic in Argüelles, Madrid, we invest in the best diagnostic tools to ensure that every clinical decision is backed by the most precise information possible.
Diagnostic tools at Debod Dental Clinic
3D intraoral scanner
The 3D intraoral scanner replaces uncomfortable alginate impressions. In just a few minutes we obtain a three-dimensional digital model of the whole mouth with sub-millimetre precision.
This scanner is essential for:
- Implant planning
- Designing restorations (veneers, crowns, Vonlay)
- Planning orthodontic treatments
- Manufacturing custom guards
Low-radiation digital X-rays
Our digital X-ray equipment emits up to 80% less radiation than conventional analogue systems. The images are immediate and high-resolution.
We carry out:
- Periapical X-rays: To assess the root and the bone around specific teeth.
- Panoramic X-ray (OPG): An overall view of the entire dentition, the jaws and the temporomandibular joints.
- CBCT (cone beam tomography): For cases requiring 3D analysis of the bone (implants, complex oral surgery).
Digital clinical photography
Photographic documentation is essential for aesthetic diagnosis and for digital smile design. We take standardised photographs of the patient that allow us to analyse the smile in relation to the facial features.
Comprehensive diagnosis: more than a check-up
A comprehensive diagnosis at Debod Dental Clinic includes:
- History taking: A complete medical history and reason for consultation.
- Clinical examination: Assessment of all teeth, gums, soft tissues and joints.
- Diagnostic tests: X-rays, scan and photographs as required.
- Personalised treatment plan: Presented clearly and transparently, with all the options and their implications.
We believe in honest dentistry: we explain everything you need to know so you can make an informed decision.

The first diagnostic visit usually lasts between 30 and 45 minutes: it includes your medical history, a complete examination, the necessary tests (scan or X-ray) and an explanation of your treatment plan with its quote.
No, they are complementary. The 3D scanner records the surface of teeth and gums; the digital X-ray shows what lies underneath (roots, bone, cavities between teeth). Combining them gives the most complete diagnosis.
