3D Radiology in Dentistry: A Practical Reference for CBCT Integration in Clinical Practice

Why this book matters

Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) has become a cornerstone of modern dental diagnostics, particularly in implant planning, endodontics and surgical procedures. However, the increasing availability of three-dimensional imaging has also created a parallel need for structured clinical guidance in interpretation, case planning and follow-up.

Book positioning

3D Radiology in Dentistry is presented as a professional reference designed to support clinicians who want to connect knowledge, technique and practical application.

Book overview

The CBCT offers many advantages: low radiation dose to patients, high definition with very small voxels, the possibility to see the tooth and the surrounding structures in three different planes. This atlas describes the use of CBCT in both clinical and surgical dentistry, the diagnostic phase but also the operational use to program the individual case, and control the future outcome.

Beyond its descriptive content, the value of the book lies in how it can support clinical reasoning, diagnostic workflows and treatment planning in daily practice.

Clinical relevance

For clinicians, the key issue is not simply accessing information, but knowing how to apply it. A structured reference can help organize decision-making, improve case assessment and support more predictable outcomes.
