Course Description
Cone Beam CT and its capabilities for more detailed imaging information and communication have changed the landscape of dentistry. The importance of diagnosis from the clinical exam is a crucial part of the dentist's tasks. Radiological exams are complimentary to the clinical exam and are often limited with the informationprovided by classical intraoral and panoramic radiographs. This webinar will review the application of CBCT in the general dental practice and the limitations of conventional radiographs.
