CE: CBCT Technology for Diagnosis and Treatment Planning: What General Practitioners Should Consider
Curtis E. Jansen, DDS
This CE article focuses on CBCT as a tool that affords clinicians the ability to not only provide patients with restoratively driven implant placement but also some of the more common diagnostic tasks in dentistry. Beyond diagnosing fractures and tooth/root anomalies and assessing hard tissue before and after implant placement, the extraoral 3D technology can be used for tasks such as panoramic x-rays and bitewings. Overall, by investing in CBCT, practitioners can benefit both their patients and their dental team.
