title: Cone beam computed tomography.
abstract: CBCT has made a sizable impact on dentistry in recent years. Dentists are still developing uses for the CBCT in orthodontics, endodontics, oral surgery, periodontics, and restorative dentistry. These systems offer the many benefits of access, although all of them are very expensive. Each dental practice must evaluate the potential usage of the unit to make the purchase or lease cost-effective.
