  • Title: Cone beam computed tomography-assisted treatment planning concepts.
    Author: Ganz SD.
    Journal: Dent Clin North Am; 2011 Jul; 55(3):515-36, viii. PubMed ID: 21726687.
    Abstract:
    Computed tomography (CT) and cone-beam CT (CBCT) technology allows three-dimensional evaluation of each patient's individual anatomy. This article highlights the presurgical planning phase of dental implant procedures that benefit from lower dose CBCT technology so that educated treatment decisions can be accurately determined. Clinicians should gain an understanding of how each view can be individually significant, with unique levels of detail helping to provide a comprehensive overview of the patient's anatomic presentation. This article outlines the benefits of using CBCT technology for dental implant applications for increased accuracy and avoidance of potential surgical and restorative complications.
