Abstract

Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is being increasingly used for head, neck and dentomaxillofacial imaging. There is growing interest in CBCT from all fields of dentistry because it has created a revolution in maxillofacial imaging. It has caused transition of dental imaging from 2D to 3D images and has expanded the role of imaging from just diagnosis to image guidance of operative and surgical procedures. The present article is to provide an overview of this CBCT technology and review its capabilities with specific applications in clinical dental practice.
