Is there a consensus for CBCT use in Orthodontics?

Abstract: This article aims to discuss current evidence and recommendations for cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in Orthodontics. In comparison to conventional radiograph, CBCT has higher radiation doses and, for this reason, is not a standard method of diagnosis in Orthodontics. Routine use of CBCT in substitution to conventional radiograph is considered an unaccepted practice. CBCT should be indicated with criteria only after clinical examination has been performed and when the benefits for diagnosis and treatment… Show more

“…Controversy still exists concerning the accuracy of the lateral cephalograms since they depict a two‐dimensional view of a three‐dimensional structure . However, we chose this method instead of cone‐beam computed tomography scans for ethical reasons and because the potential benefits of diagnosis and treatment planning do not outweigh the potential risks of an increased radiation dose …”

“…Cone beam computed tomography was used to evaluate the buccolingual dimension of the alveolar bone because it provides images without superimposition of structures with resolution and reliability sufficient to analyze the amount of bone and allow tridimensional manipulation of the structures under study 23 .…”

“…Superimposition of a patient's 2D cephalograms is traditionally indicated whenever evaluation of orthodontic treatment and/or growth is needed. More recently, superimposing the 3D digital models or CBCT images makes it possible to assess these changes in a 3D manner . A recently developed software (Ortho Mechanics Sequential Analyzer OMSA) was introduced to enable visualization and superimposition of digital dental models .…”
