Abstract

Cone  beam  computed  tomography  (CBCT)  has  changed  the  way  oral  radiology  is  practiced,  improving   diagnostic   quality,   accuracy   of   surgical   procedures   and   its   capacity   to   provide   volumetric data of anatomical structures and pathological entities are fundamental for prognostic enhancement, especially considering the volume can be interpreted as a biological marker. In this manuscript, we describe a case report in which the CBCT has provided a great number of details, enabling to determine the most accurate treatment plan.
