Cone-beam CT for Dental Radiography

Abstract

The cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) technique was first inserted in dental imaging 15 years ago. Due to this technique 3D imaging in dentistry has been excessively changed. The purpose beyond using CBCT instead of computed tomography (CT) imaging is that CT can not be used in many cases in dentistry, in addition to the higher radiation and cost of CT. Nowadays, CBCT can be applied in diagnostics for several dental specialties because of the variety of services it offers and the specification of use. In contrast to CT, CBCT has shown great benefits in endodontics, implant planning oral and maxillofacial surgery and even in orthodontics.
