Bertram F, et al. - Herein, a comparison was drawn between panoramic and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) determinations of implant-to-mandibular canal (MC) dimensions in mandibular regions posterior to the mental foramen. Researchers also investigated if factors such as gender, age, region, and vertical dimension influenced the association between the two techniques. Evidence of an underestimation of available vertical bone dimensions for implants in the posterior regions of the mandible was provided in the findings when assessed by panoramic radiography. Therefore, in this region, the use of CBCT was recommended for all implant size estimations.
