Abstract

There are inadequate data or reviews to confirm the reliability and efficacy of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in evaluation of vertical root fractures (VRFs). Thus, the aim of this mini review is to discover the reliability and efficacy of CBCT in the evaluation of VRFs and prove CBCT as a picturing addition in the different aspects of VRFs.

Keywords: Diagnosis; Vertical Root Fractures (VRFs); Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT); Teeth Fractures
