Comparing Radiation Doses in CBCT and Medical CT Imaging for Dental Applications.

Background: Dental imaging plays a crucial role in diagnosis and treatment planning, with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and medical computed tomography (CT) being two common modalities. This study aims to compare the radiation doses associated with CBCT and medical CT imaging in dental applications to assess their relative safety and efficacy.

Materials And Methods: We conducted a retrospective study using data from 100 patients who underwent both CBCT and medical CT scans for dental purposes.
