VIDIGAL, Bruno César Ladeira et al. Use of Cone Beam CT in the evaluation of root fractures. Rev. Bras. Odontol. [online]. 2014, vol.71, n.2, pp. 152-155. ISSN 1984-3747.
The diagnosis of root fracture is a challenge in dentistry, the examination of diagnostic imaging more used in dentistry it is still conventional radiography. This, in turn, is limited because adjacent structures show in one plane, and therefore a two-dimensional image of a three-dimensional object. The aim of study was demonstrate clinical cases of root fracture in which it was used cone beam computed tomography for diagnosis. Cone beam CT scan is an imaging exam with excellent dimensional quality resolution and indicated when there is uncertainty about the presence of root fractures.
