C
one-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) systems have been designed for imaging hard tissues of the
maxillofacial region. CBCT is capable of providing sub-millimeter resolution in images of high diagnostic
quality, with short scanning times (10–70 seconds) and radiation dosages reportedly up to 15 times lower
than those of conventional CT scans. CBCT is used for evaluation of implant site, orthodontics, endodontics,
localization of mandibular canal, valuation of TMJ and evaluation of pathology. Increasing availability of this
technology provides the dental clinician with an imaging modality capable of providing a 3-dimensional rep-
resentation of the maxillofacial skeleton with minimal distortion. This article provides an overview of currently
available maxillofacial CBCT systems and reviews the specific application of various CBCT display modes to
clinical dental practice and presenting cases from my private office.
