Panoramic (PAN) x-rays performed poorly in detecting external root resorption of third molars, but cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) did much better in diagnosing this condition. The study was ...

Cervical root resorption represents a challenging pathological process in dentistry, where the loss of dental hard tissue occurs at the cervical region of the tooth root. This condition, often benign ...

However, root resorption occurs 3-dimensionally, and 2D images cannot detect root resorption on lingual or buccal surfaces nor measure the volume of root loss. Therefore, quantification of treatment ...
