Abstract

Aim: To summarise the application of CBCT in dentistry emphasising on its important in precise diagnosis. Background: CBCT is the abbreviation for Cone Beam Computed Tomography. It is capable to project the dental imaging in three dimensions, which is better that the two dimensions radiographs. Generally, CBCT is a very useful tool for imaging the craniofacial region, by providing a detailed and sharp image under high resolution. The image produced can be used as a guidance for further diagnosis, treatment and even surgical procedures. In fact, CBCT also has low radiation exposure. Reasons: To acknowledge the application of CBCT in of dentistry and its usefulness in diagnosis and treatment planning.
