Abstract

The aim of this paper is to make surgeons aware of the use of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) within the field of implantology. The paper describes one case illustrating the improved diagnostic yield using CBCT over conventional radiography thus facilitating the appropriate insertion guidance of implants.
