Abstract

Since the adequacy of radiography for dental use, it has been the most widely used imaging test in endodontics. Useful in all stages of treatment, this imaging test allows us to evaluate the tooth and important adjacent anatomical structures. Because it is a two-dimensional examination of three-dimensional structures, it has considerable limitations, such as distortions, noise, and artifact projections. Cone Beam Computed Tomography has the advantage of being a high-resolution three-dimensional examination and allows the evaluation of structures in various planes without overlapping or distortions.
