<p>Imaging is the most important and frequently used diagnostic tool in dentistry.<xref rid="ref1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
Correct diagnosis is vital for proper treatment. Although the history and clinical examination are of prime importance when evaluating patients, the use and evolution of non-invasive technology from two-dimensional (2D) X-ray modalities to three-dimensional (3D) cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), for imaging is increasingly becoming popular.<xref rid="ref2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
CBCT was first developed for use in angiography. In 1998, Mozzo <italic>et al</italic>
. reported the first CBCT unit developed specifically for dental use, the NewTom 9000 (Quantitative Radiology, Verona, Italy). Other similar devices introduced at around that time included the Ortho-CT, which was renamed the 3DX (J. Morita Mfg Corp, Kyoto, Japan) multi-image micro-CT in 2000. In 2003, Hashimoto <italic>et al</italic>
reported that the 3DX CBCT produced better image quality with a much lower radiation dose than the newest multidetector row helical CT unit (1.19 mSvvs 458 mSv per examination).<xref rid="ref3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
The CBCT imaging technique is based on a cone-shaped X-ray beam that is centered on a 2D detector, and the beam performs one rotation around the object, producing a series of 2D images. The images are reconstructed in a 3D data set using a modification of the original cone-beam algorithm developed by Feldkamp <italic>et al</italic>
. in 1984.<xref rid="ref4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>
CBCT images from the craniofacial region are often acquired at a higher resolution than conventional CT. In addition, these systems are more compact than conventional CT systems, which make them more practical for use in dental offices.<xref rid="ref5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>
Currently CBCT has a wide range of clinical applications and can be used for maxillofacial surgical treatment planning, assessing impacted teeth prior to surgical extractions, temporomandibular joint analysis, orthodontics, airway assessment, periodontics, bone level evaluation, implantology, endodontic assessment, diagnosis and treatment planning.<xref rid="ref6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
</p>
</sec>
<sec id="sec1-2"><title>CBCT in Orthodontics</title>
<p>The present article is aimed to throw light on the usefulness of CBCT imaging in cases on impacted teeth. CBCT imaging can offer an insight into the impacted teeth ranging from etiology of impaction through the treatment phase and the final treatment. There are various bone diseases that increase the density of the bone surrounding the tooth which may cause impaction, such as fibrous dysplasia, and syndromes associated with multiple supernumerary teeth such as Gardner’s syndrome.<xref rid="ref6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
,<xref rid="ref7" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
The most common site for single supernumerary teeth is in the maxillary incisor area, and multiple supernumerary teeth occur most frequently in the premolar region, usually in the mandible.<xref rid="ref6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
</p>
<p>Review of articles has shown that effective doses for digital panoramic radiographs range from 5.5 to 22.0 μSv, when the salivary glands are considered 2.4-6.2 μSv without while digital cephalometric radiographs have effective doses of 2.2 to 3.4 μSv with salivary glands, 1.6 to 1.7 μSv without.<xref rid="ref8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
-<xref rid="ref12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
</p>
<p>Therefore, OPG will expose the patient to 7.5 to 25.4 μSv effective dose (with salivary glands). This is in relation with an average annual natural background radiation dose in the United States of 3.0 μSv (3000 mSv).<xref rid="ref13" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>
Data have been published on four of the large field-of-view systems: the NewTom 9000 (QR, Verona, Italy), NewTom 3G, CB MercuRay (Hitachi Medical Systems, Tokyo, Japan), and the i-CAT (Imaging Sciences International, Hatfield, PA).<xref rid="ref14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
,<xref rid="ref15" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>
Few cases at our department are a testimony to the usefulness of CBCT and how it changes our treatment plan. CBCT imaging has became an vital role in the field of orthodontics for diagnosis and treatment planning for both adult and pediatric patients.<xref rid="ref15" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>
This imaging modality has been used in the assessment of facial growth, airway, disturbances of tooth eruption and cephalometric analysis, safe insertion of mini screw implants (for anchorage) and proximity to vital structures can greatly aid complicated orthodontic case management, for complicated tooth movement predictability and for evaluation of impacted canines, other impacted teeth, root resorption, fractured roots, temperomandibular joint degenerative changes, cleft lip and palate.<xref rid="ref16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>
</p>
<sec id="sec2-1"><title>Case 1</title>
<p>A 21-year-old non growing male patient named Praveen reported with a complaint of a highly placed tooth and space in the front region (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Figure 1</xref>
). He reported a history of trauma at the age of 6 years when he suffered a blow to the deciduous maxillary incisors, from the front in a superior and posterior direction. On clinical examination, he was found to have a Class I skeletal base relation (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">Figure 2</xref>
), Angle’s Class I malocclusion. Orthopantomogram (OPG) showed the absence of root wrt 11 (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">Figure 3</xref>
). It was decided that the case required further evaluation with CBCT as the blow was directed classically in the direction likely to cause dilaceration. On CBCT examination, it was found that the right maxillary central incisor had a root that is in contact with the root of the right maxillary lateral incisor (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F4">Figure 4</xref>
).</p>

<p>This finding led to a complete change in the treatment plan. The initial plan to extract the central incisor was changed into a conservative mode of fixed orthodontic mechanotherapy wherein cantilever mechanics could be used to bring the central incisor into alignment.</p>

<sec id="sec2-2"><title>Case 2</title>
<p><list list-type="order"><list-item><p>A 24-year-old non-growing female patient named Snehal Jain (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F5">Figure 5</xref>
) with average growth pattern is diagnosed as a case of skeletal Class I jaw relationship, bilateral end-on canine relation, with proclined upper anteriors, an overjet of 10 mm and overbite of 8 mm, missing 26 and 46, lower arch crowding with orthognathic profile, competent lips with straight divergence (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F6">Figure 6</xref>

</p>
</list-item>
<list-item><p>With the history, clinical examination and radiographic records (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F7">Figure 7</xref>
) it was decided to proceed with fixed mechanotherapy. In the second quadrant, it was decided to use second molar as the anchor unit and maintain space for replacement of first molar by prosthesis after completion of orthodontic treatment. In the fourth quadrant, it was decided to close the edentulous space with respect to missing first molar by mesialization of second and third molars.

</p>
</list-item>
</list>
</p>
<p>A need was sought to obtain CBCT (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F8">Figure 8</xref>
) to have a clear picture of the relation of second and third molars in the second quadrant. It proved to be the game changer indeed as the treatment plan shifted from simple orthodontic mechanics to the use of temporary anchorage devices.</p>
<fig id="F8" position="float"><label>Figure 8</label>

</caption>
<graphic xlink:href="JIOH-7-96-g008"></graphic>
</fig>
<p>3D images obtained from CBCT showed the third molar to be lying perpendicular to the second molar with the root of both being intertwined. Use of the second molar as the anchor unit could have jeopardized the prognosis of both first and second molars due to root resorption once the orthodontic forces were applied. It was thus, decided to use temporary anchorage device or mini-implant in the second quadrant to obtain absolute anchorage from the bone.</p>

<p>From the current radiographic records such as the OPG (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F11">Figure 11</xref>
) and the intra oral periapical radiograph, we could infer the presence of an impacted premolar but no information could be obtained regarding the root region. No information could be obtained regarding the root proximity of the canine that was highly placed labial to the lateral incisor. A CBCT (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F12">Figure 12</xref>
) was recorded, and it was confirmed the presence of root for the impacted premolar. It was confirmed the close proximity of the roots of the canine and lateral incisor which could have resulted in resorption of the roots if proper diagnosis and precautions were not taken, which is attributed to the advent of CBCT.</p>

<p>It is enormously imperative for any clinician to remain in touch with the latest innovations in the field of one’s expertise and apply the same for the benefit of patient care. CBCT is one such recent advancement in the field of dentistry that has many clinical applications including in orthodontics. One should learn, adapt and use this imaging modality in clinical practice.</p>
