Clinical use of CBCT in endodontics: a case series following ese position statement

Authors

Abstract

In the last decade, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) has emerged as a game changer in endodontics, significantly enhancing clinicians’ diagnostic and treatment capabilities. The ability to assess the internal and external morphology of teeth and surrounding tissues in three dimensions has redefined diagnostic accuracy, treatment planning, and operative procedures (including guided endodontics), improving quality and clinical outcomes. Despite its numerous advantages, the use of CBCT must be justified based on clinical necessity and balanced against radiation exposure. Therefore, the European Society of Endodontology (ESE) has published a position statement on the clinical use of CBCT to give precise recommendations concerning the clinical cases in which it should be used. The present article aims to analyze the content of the ESE position statement by showing, through clinical cases, the benefits of CBCT in everyday practice
