| Abstract | ||
| Background: Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) has revolutionized the process of performing radiological examination. By using CBCT in the orofacial region can be accurately visualized in three dimensions images. The wider spread of CBCT devices is further encouraged by the faults of two-dimensional radiological methods, especially concerning dental implant. Aim: to outline the benefits and drawbacks of using CBCT devices with its applications in different branches in prosthodontics for diagnosis and treatment planning of implant, maxilla- facial, Temporo mandibular joint and in over denture treatment . Main body: CBCT is now commonly used in several prosthodontics procedures. The primary causes are the smaller size, lower expense, and reduced radiation exposure when compared to computed tomography. Three-dimensional evaluation of the maxilla, mandible, skull and related structures is made possible by CBCT. Conclusion: Three-dimensional radiography, or CBCT is a diagnostic tool that dentists and dental specialist can use for a thorough examination and treatment planning. | ||
