Abstract

Objectives: This review article aims to describe the accuracy of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in diagnosing root canal configuration. Review: This study is a literature review consisting of English articles about the accuracy of cone-beam computed tomography in diagnosing root canal configuration, published in 2013 – 2023. The article search databases used were Pubmed and Science Direct with the keyword “(cone-beam computed tomography[MeSH Terms]) AND (configuration, root canal[MeSH Terms]).” The selected articles were screened by checking the publication year, duplicating articles, reading the titles and abstracts, and the entire article's contents. The total search results for articles based on keywords obtained were 205 and only seven were included. In order to successfully perform root canal treatment, thorough knowledge of the root canal configuration is essential. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) can improve our understanding of root canal configuration. The development of CBCT has brought to light the disadvantages of conventional radiography, which include the compression of three-dimensional anatomy, geometric distortion, and anatomical noise. Conclusion: Radiology is essential in treatment planning, disease monitoring, and assessmen t of treatment outcomes. The development of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) offers three-dimensional accuracy with a reasonable cost, no geometric distortion and anatomical noise, and the ability to create cross-sectional images, revolutionizing the imaging of dentomaxillofacial structures. This imaging system has been shown to overcome some of the limitations of conventional radiography.

Abstract

Panoramic radiographs are used to diagnose oral diseases, monitor dentofacial development, and evaluate treatment proce-dures. This article discusses panoramic radiographs in paediatric patients under 6 years of age according to age, gender, di-sease diagnosis at RSGMP Universitas Hasanuddin. In this descriptive observational study, cross-sectional data collection was used on all paediatric patients who underwent panoramic radiography from January to December 2023. The reasons for taking panoramic radiographs were categorised as early childhood caries, oral pathologies, dentoalveolar fractures, developmental ano-malies, and others. A total of 202 panoramic radiographs were taken from paediatric patients aged 2-6 years; 82 children aged 5 years were the most common. Girls accounted for 107 of the patients. The most common case diagnosis was early childhood caries with 167 children. It was concluded that the use of panoramic radiographs in paediatric patients is not intended as a gene-ral screening. It should be limited to children under 6 years of age unless absolutely necessary.
