- Abstract
Cone beamed imaging has been gaining increased popularity in dentistry in recent years. Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) data are used frequently for diagnosis and treatment since it may provide three dimensional volumetric images. CBCT image data are used in dentistry for; evaluation of the mandibula for making implants, evaluation of the degenerative changes of TME joints on the bone, orthodontic treatment analysis and planning, examination of the teeth and its surrounding structures, evaluation of the proximity of the impacted third molars to the mandibular nerve and evaluation of the damages and changes caused by cysts and tumors on the teeth or bone tissue. The purpose of the present study was to explain the operating principles of CBCT and to evaluate information on its advantages, disadvantages as well as areas of use.
