ABSTRACT:
In recent years, digital technologies have entered every field of dentistry, allowing the practice to adapt to new and alternative diagnostic and treatment approaches. Every day in the clinical practice, cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) examinations are used. This modality is applicable in every phase of orthodontic or surgical dental or maxillofacial work, from diagnosis, treatment planning, design and fabrication of orthodontic appliances, patient records, growth prognosis, prediction of treatment outcomes etc. In orthodontics particularly, a large spectrum of CBCT studies find their role, in particular - CBCT of the whole skull, which allows a number of analyses and evaluations that cannot be performed on smaller volume images and CBCT of separately one or two jaws. Nowadays, the accessibility to the CBCT examinations is facilitated - almost every X-ray laboratory has a CBCT machine, and there are dozens of software for processing and editing readily available, even with free license. The CBCT and its extremely wide range of applications make it paramount in the orthodontics workflow.

Keywords: CBCT in orthodontics, CBCT review, digital orthodontics, digital treatment planning, 3D cephalometry,
