Abstract:
Oral diagnosis and treatment planning is of utmost importance in pediatric dentistry. Although intraoral and conventional radiographic procedures have been used extensively since decades, there two-dimensional representation has raised many questions. Cone beamed computed tomography with 3-D technology is a replacement for conventional 2-D imaging and has a wide application among child patients in pediatric dentistry. This article therefore deals with current facts and myths about clinical situations where CBCT is indicated in pediatric patients.
