Role of cone beam computed tomography in diagnosis and treatment planning in dentistry: An update

Abstract: Accurate diagnosis and treatment planning are the backbone of any medical therapy; for this reason, cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) was introduced and has been widely used. CBCT technology provides a three-dimensional image viewing, enabling exact location and extent of lesions or any anatomical region. For the very same reason, CBCT can not only be used for surgical fields but also for fields such as endodontics, prosthodontics, and orthodontics for appropriate treatment planning and effective dental car… Show more

“…10 CBCT is playing an important role for recording three dimensional structures of Oral and Maxillofacial regions and gaining increasing role in the diagnosis of morphologic abnormalities. 11 There are currently more than 15 third-party DICOM viewers for oral and maxillofacial radiology 12 , in our study Planmeca Graph 2: Graphical representation of interobserver reliability of three-dimensional measurements of the upper airway ProMax3D Mid Proface CBCT unit was used for scans and measurements were done with software viewer Romexis version 4.2.0 R 10/13/15 was used. Currently, there is no normal value for airway volume or any other threedimensional measurement, the reason for this perhaps because the airway volume is extremely variable, depending on head posture, breathing stage and tongue position.…”

“…By integrating features with findings an accurate diagnosis can be achieved while differentiating JOF from other fibro osseous conditions like fibrous dysplasia or ossifying fibroma. 20,21 JOFs aggressive growth pattern often leads to infiltration and displacement of neighboring structures such, as teeth, nerves and blood vessels. A common issue that often arises is the movement or absorption of teeth which can make diagnosing and planning treatment more challenging particularly when it involves the jawbone.…”

“…Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is an X-ray-based imaging method with a shorter scanning time and lower radiation dose than traditional CT [ 1 , 2 ]. This system is commonly used in dental practice to provide three-dimensional high-resolution visualization of the structure of oral and maxillofacial lesions, helping the diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in the patients efficiently [ 3 , 4 ]. However, different factors can negatively influence the interpretation accuracy of the prepared scans, such as low inter- and intra-observer agreement (principally for junior and less experienced practitioners) [ 5 , 6 ]; therefore, CBCT imaging has weaknesses as well as the advantages mentioned above.…”
