Diagnostic Efficiency and Usage of CBCT in Pediatric Dentistry
Özet
X-ray images are mostly needed in order to diagnose the problems of our patients who apply to
dentistry clinics with many complaints. In cases where the diagnosis cannot be made with
conventional x-ray techniques, it may be necessary to resort to advanced imaging techniques
such as cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Although CBCT applications provide a
lower x-ray spread compared to imaging methods with computed tomography, when pediatric
dentistry applications are considered, the high x-ray spread compared to conventional x-rays
requires careful selection of areas of use in children. Since children are highly sensitive to
ionizing radiation, exposure should be kept reasonably low. There are a significant number of
published guidelines on the clinical use of CBCT in the literature. However, there is limited
literature information on when and how often CBCT is indicated in pediatric dentistry. The
purpose of this article is to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy and usage areas of CBCT in pediatric
dentistry
