CBCT analysis and/or interpretation of both arches (maxillary and mandibular dentition) is needed to evaluate the entire dentition and supporting alveolar structures. This type of analysis is particularly useful for diagnosing conditions such as malocclusion, periodontal disease, or implant site assessment. For example, a patient undergoing full-mouth rehabilitation may require CBCT analysis to assess the quality of bone and the position of vital structures in both arches.
The primary benefit of CBCT analysis of both arches is its ability to provide highly detailed 3D images of the entire dentition and supporting structures, enabling targeted interventions. By analyzing both arches, clinicians can obtain a comprehensive understanding of the patient’s anatomy, identifying issues such as malocclusion, periodontal disease, or implant site suitability. This level of precision improves the likelihood of successful outcomes, particularly in cases of full-mouth rehabilitation or orthodontic treatment. Additionally, CBCT analysis can help monitor the progress of treatment over time, ensuring that the condition is adequately controlled.
CBCT analysis of both arches is essential for diagnosing and planning treatment for conditions like malocclusion, periodontal disease, or implant site assessment in oral and maxillofacial surgery. Surgeons should use this analysis to evaluate bone quality, root morphology, and periapical pathology, ensuring safe and effective surgical or orthodontic procedures. This analysis also supports procedures like orthognathic surgery or full-mouth rehabilitation by providing precise anatomical measurements.
