    Cone beam computed tomography use in orthodontics

    Full text link
    Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is widely used by orthodontists to obtain three‐dimensional (3‐D) images of their patients. This is of value as malocclusion results from discrepancies in three planes of space. This review tracks the use of CBCT in orthodontics, from its validation as an accurate and reliable tool, to its use in diagnosing and treatment planning, and in assessing treatment outcomes in orthodontics.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/90211/1/j.1834-7819.2011.01662.x.pd
