Description:
Cone beam volumetric tomography shows accurate anatomy and pathology in vivid detail. 3D diagnosis enhances surgical decision-making and treatment planning since the actual structural detail and disease presence can be measured and planned for. This presentation discusses trends in Cone Beam technology, the relationship between resolution and sensor size, and radiation considerations. Cases will show how 3D diagnosis facilitates accurate treatment plans and materials selections for endodontic, perio-endo, periodontal defects, bone grafts, and implant dentistry.
