“…These findings are in accordance with Hariharan et al (11) , Bonfim et al (12) , Cassetta et al (13) who found that linear and angular measurements from CBCT were similar to measurements from conventional lateral cephalogram. It is important to note that none of these studies used the synthesized two dimensional images from CBCT, nor did any studied cleft patients.…”

“…A C2-es csigolya tekintetében nemigen sikerült kapcsolatot kimutatni, amit azzal magyaráztak, hogy a 2. nyaki csigolya hajlamos a leginkább a remodellálódásra a növekedés folyamán. Több szerző is egyetért abban, hogy a CBCT-felvételekből készített 2D, sagittalis metszeti felvételek és a csigolyákról készült 3D-rekonstrukciók is ugyanolyan jól alkalmazhatók, mint az oldalirányú teleröntgenek [10,31]. Eszerint bármely klasszikus csigolyavizsgálati analízis szempontrendszerét felhasználva ugyanolyan pontos megbízhatósággal meghatározhatunk csontérettséget a 3D-felvételeken is.…”

The assessment of skeletal age is of utmost importance not only in the field of anthropology, forensic medicine, pediatrics, endocrinology but also in orthodontics and jaw orthopedics. Bone age refers to the individual’s biological development which can differ within a relatively wide range for the same chronological age. Therefore, accurate assessment of skeletal maturity and pubertal growth plays an important role in establishing a diagnosis for certain diseases. In addition, it is essential for proper timing and success of treatments in many cases. Currently, there are many methods available to determine skeletal age and pubertal growth spurt. During growth, bones undergo significant changes, the sequence of which is strongly determined. These changes can be measured by various methods including radiological examinations. More specifically, these classical methods are often based on the radiological evaluation of morphological changes in the hand bones and cervical vertebrae. Methods based on dental development also exist to assess the biologic maturity of an individual. However, thanks to three-dimensional imaging techniques and molecular diagnostic methods, even more accurate tests can be performed to determine biological maturity. These modern methods rely on the information obtained from the cone-beam computer tomograph records and on the measurements of biomarkers present in different circulatory or other body fluids. The purpose of this summary is to provide an overview of the various classical and modern methods for the assessment of skeletal age that could aid us in many fields of science.

“…Hand-wrist and CVM methods were used for assessing the adolescent growth peak. It is suggested that the CBCT images may be useful for estimates of skeletal maturation, although they should not be used solely for that purpose [65].

Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is an important source of three-dimensional volumetric data in clinical orthodontics. Due to the progress in the technology of CBCT, for orthodontic clinical diagnosis, treatment and follow-up, CBCT supply much more reliable information compared to conventional radiography. The most justified indications for the use of CBCT in orthodontics are the existence of impacted and transposed teeth. For the management of the impacted teeth, CBCT enhances the ability to localize these teeth accurately and to assess root resorption of adjacent teeth. Patients with craniofacial anomalies like cleft palate cases, the abnormalities of the temporomandibular joint contributing malocclusion, evaluation of airway morphology in obstructive sleep apnea cases, patients needing maxillary expansion or planning orthognathic surgery in severe skeletal discrepancies are also listed among the indications of using CBCT in orthodontics. CBCT is useful in identifying optimal site location for temporary skeletal anchorage device. The use of CBCT for the assessment of treatment outcomes and evaluation of cervical vertebral maturation are still controversial issues. It should be kept in mind that before using CBCT, justification and evaluation of risks and benefits are needed. In order to minimize the radiation dose, the exam should include only the areas of interest.
