Abstract
Early diagnosis and timely treatment of endodontic illness are crucial since it can negatively influence quality of life. Radiology is crucial for planning treatments, monitoring diseases, and evaluating how well treatments are working. The maxillofacial skeleton’s osseous components can be visualized in three dimensions (3D) using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), a diagnostic imaging technique. There are CBCT systems available that can deliver low dose, limited field of view (FOV) pictures with adequate spatial resolution for use in endodontic diagnosis, treatment planning, and post-treatment evaluation.
The physician can gain a deeper understanding of the anatomy being evaluated, improving the ability to detect endodontic illness and enabling more efficient treatment planning. The aim of this paper is to review current literature on the endodontic applications of CBCT.
Key words: 3 Dimensional, cone-beam computed tomography, endodontics, radiology
