Diagnostic Accuracy of Cone-Beam Computed Tomography at Different Tube Voltages for Vertical Root Fractures in Endodontically Treated Teeth with Metallic Posts
Introduction: The study evaluated the effectiveness of different tube voltages of the cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) device on the diagnosis of vertical root fractures in teeth with single root canals and posts. Materials and methods: Sixty single-canal and single-rooted extracted human mandib...
