| Summary: | The clinical application of 3-dimensional craniofacial imaging is one of the most exciting and revolutionary topics in dentistry. Conebeam computed tomography (CBCT) systems have been designed for imaging hard tissues of the maxillofacial region. CBCT is capable of providing sub-millimeter resolution in images of high diagnostic quality, with short scanning times (10–70 seconds) and radiation dosages reportedly up to 15 times lower than those of conventional CT scans. Increasing availability of this technology provides the dental clinician with an imaging modality capable of providing a 3-dimensional representation of the maxillofacial skeleton with minimal distortion. This article provides an overview of he specific application of various CBCT display modes to clinical dental practice. |
