Abstract:
In the past, dental disease and lesions involving the jaw were either evaluated by plain radiography or tomography. The advent of spiral computed tomography (CT) and DentaScan is changing the imaging trend. It is now not only used for pre-implant assessment but also in the diagnosis of lesions affecting the jaw. This pictorial review discusses the role of DentaScan in the various abnormalities that may affect the mandible and maxilla.
