CBCT in Dentistry

Cone Beam Computed Tomography is a relatively new three-dimensional imaging technology, which has been specifically developed for imaging of the teeth and jaws. The aim of this book is to acquaint the dental team with various forms of this technology and its potential applications. An understanding of the underlying principles will allow the users of this technology to tailor the imaging protocol to the patient's individual needs to achieve appropriate imaging at the lowest radiation dose. The benefits over the conventional 2D imaging have also been included apart from all the potential applications of CBCT in dental practice which are also discussed in detail in this book.
