3D radiology in dentistry

Author: Emanuele Ambu
The conical beam computed tomography (TCHC), is an extraordinary advance for dentistry. With it a new border opens, and allows us to make an accurate diagnosis in those cases where traditional tools were not enough. In daily practice, we are generally facing situations of radiographic exploration and symptoms of our patients who do not coincide, or can even take us to multiple scenarios with different diagnoses. When I look at a traditional X-ray, I always think, in fact, that it is a two-dimensional image of something that has actually has three dimensions. Finally, thanks to the TCHC we have the lacking dimension, which increases our knowledge exponentially.

When reading the text, we can see the enthusiasm and passion with which the authors elaborated this work. Each chapter is a source of information, every detail was carefully examined, and each clinical case has been presented extensively.
The introductory chapters provide the knowledge and basic tools for the professional to understand the TCHC.
The rest of the book is an extremely pleasant atlas that includes the use of the TCHC in clinical and surgical dentistry, and describes in detail not only the diagnostic phase, but also the operational use to plan the individual cases and control the future outcome.
The work is scheduled to be consulted many times, every day, it is very useful for those who approach this new dimension of dentistry and require a guide. On the other hand, the authors explain, in a very simple way, the concepts that are not at all simple, demonstrating their experience and deep knowledge of matter.
