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 care. The aim and clinical significance of this review are to update dental clinicians on the CBCT applications in each dental specialty for an appropriate diagnosis and more predictable treatment.
准确的诊断和治疗计划是任何医学治疗的基础;因此,锥形束计算机断层扫描(CBCT)被引入并得到广泛应用。CBCT技术提供三维图像观察,能够明确病变或任何解剖区域的位置和范围。出于同样的原因,CBCT不仅可用于外科领域,还可用于牙髓病学、口腔修复学和正畸学等领域,以进行适当的治疗计划和有效的牙齿护理。本综述的目的和临床意义在于向牙科临床医生介绍CBCT在各牙科专业中的应用,以实现准确诊断和更可预测的治疗。
