Can Use of Cone Beam Computed Tomography Have an Effect on Endodontic Treatment?

 

ABSTRACT

Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) has revolutionized endodontic diagnosis and treatment planning over the past decade. It allows the clinician to detect dental anatomy and disease states with much greater accuracy than regular two-dimensional radiography and is recommended as the imaging modality of choice for use in most aspects of endodontics. This paper reviews the most updated guidelines for use of CBCT to illustrate the effects this has on clinical endodontic practice.
