Abstract


Abstract
The introduction of cone beam CT (CBCT) represents a
radical change for dental and Maxillofacial radiology. The
three –dimensional (3D) information appears to offer the potential
of improved diagnosis for a wide range of clinical application
, and usually at lower doses than with Medical multislice
CT. Usually CBCT gives increased radiation dose to
patients compared with conventional dental radiographic
techniques
Key words Cone beam computerized tomography , Dental
implant imaging , 3 dimensional imaging
