This comprehensive 8-hour course is designed to help general dentists confidently
incorporate CBCT imaging into everyday clinical practice. Participants will develop a
systematic approach to CBCT interpretation while learning to identify both common and clinically significant findings throughout the maxillofacial complex.
Topics include normal maxillofacial anatomy, interpretation principles, incidental findings, endodontic diagnosis, implant site assessment, third molar evaluation, pathology of the jaws, paranasal sinus findings, temporomandibular joint disorders, airway evaluation, and medico-legal considerations. Attendees will also learn how CBCT can improve treatment planning, enhance interdisciplinary communication, and support more predictable clinical outcomes.
Through real-world cases and practical examples, participants will gain the knowledge needed to recognize findings that impact patient care, understand when referral is indicated, and maximize the diagnostic value of every scan obtained in their practice.
