Comparison between cone-beam computed tomography and intraoral digital radiography for assessment of tooth root lesions

Apr 11, 2017 by in Orthodontics Comments Off on Comparison between cone-beam computed tomography and intraoral digital radiography for assessment of tooth root lesions

Introduction Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) might be more accurate in identifying radicular surface lesions compared with digital periapical radiography. In this study, we compared these techniques in detecting simulated root…
