“…In TMD, the disorders associated with bony structures such as condyle, the glenoid fossa, and articular eminence which includes flattening of articular surface, condylar hyper-, hypo-, or aplasia, cortical erosion, osteophytes and ankylosis can be diagnosed. 25,26 6. Limitations of CBCT Structures with high density like enamel and radiopaque materials not only scatter the beam but also cause beam hardening.…”

Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is beneficial radiographic diagnostic tool in oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMS). It helps maxillofacial surgeons to develop treatment approach in various conditions. Study of head and neck structures three dimensionally allows surgeon to do planning accurately, as a result enhances operative precision, and assess post-operative result. CBCT imaging have specific indications and limitations. The purpose of this article is to focalize on the advantages, drawbacks, limitations, and clinical applications of CBCT as a headmost CT imaging technique in the OMF region.

“…Temporomandibular disorders associated with degenerative pathologies or abnormalities in the bony structures of condyle, glenoid fossa, and articular eminence such as cortical erosion, articular surface flattening, osteophytes, condiylar hyper-, hypo-, or aplasia, ankylosis, and coronoid process hyperplasia can be visualized with CBCT [9][10][11]. A CBCT imaging for TMJ complex requires less time and lower radiation doses, it provides the multi-planar views for both TMJs from a single 360° rotation scan, and it simplifies positioning of patient [11].…”

“…It was found that CBCT assessment of changes in periapical lesion and mucosal thickening dimensions may reveal useful information regarding endodontic treatment success [57]. The CBCT imaging also guides the clinicians for planning endodontic surgery and in elucidation of causes of fail after endodontic treatment [10,58]. However, there are two major disadvantages concerning the utilization of CBCT in endodontics: The increased radiation doses, compared to 2D imaging methods, limit its routine usage.…”

The invention of computed tomography (CT) technique revolutionized diagnostic imaging. Compared to conventional X-ray imaging procedures, CT involves higher radiation doses. Recently, cone-beam CT (CBCT) specifically designed for maxillofacial imaging was introduced. CBCT technique is based on a cone-shaped X-ray beam centered on a twodimensional (2D) detector. The detector system performs one rotation around the patient, producing a series of 2D images which are then reconstructed in a 3D data set. The contemporary knowledge regarding CBCT and its proper application guides the practitioner for improvement in diagnostic purposes and treatment planning. The aim of this chapter is to focus on the details, advantages, drawbacks, and clinical applications of CBCT as a headmost CT imaging technique in the oral and maxillofacial (OMF) region. The main clinical applications of CBCT in the OMF region are dentistry including dentoalveolar and maxillofacial surgery, orthodontics, endodontics, and periodontics; and otolaryngology. The aforementioned clinical use of CBCT was described in detail with illustrated sample cases. In most of the cases in OMF region, CBCT takes the place of multi-slice CT. Thus, clinicians should know the clinical applications and capabilities of CBCT technique with its drawbacks.

“…The traditional methods of radiography, such as intraoral and panoramic radiographs, have been supplemented, and in some cases, supplanted, by state-ofthe-art advancements like cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), digital radiography, 3D imaging, and artificial intelligenceassisted radiological interpretation. 3,4 These emerging trends offer unprecedented precision, enhanced diagnostic capabilities, and reduced patient exposure to ionizing radiation, all of which contribute to a more comprehensive and patient-centric approach to oral healthcare. 5 In this context, dental students must not only possess a foundational understanding of conventional radiological techniques but also be well-versed in the applications, advantages, and limitations of these emerging technologies.…”

Background: Oral radiology plays a crucial role in dental practice, with emerging trends such as 3D imaging, artificial intelligence (AI) integration, and tele-dentistry reshaping the field. This study aimed to assess the knowledge and awareness of these trends among dental students. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 104 dental students in Chennai, using a structured questionnaire. The participants included undergraduate and postgraduate students. Data were collected through online platforms and analysed using PSPP 3.0 software
