CBCT in Action: Enhancing Diagnosis, Treatment, and Patient Care
This comprehensive 4-hour continuing education (CE) course is designed for general dentists who seek to enhance their understanding and application of Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) in clinical practice. Upon completion of this course, attendees will:
- Understand and identify uses of CBCT imaging in dental diagnostics to integrate it into routine procedures.
- Analyze CBCT images to identify dental conditions and anomalies.
- Improve accuracy and success of dental implants using CBCT.
- Recognize common abnormalities and pathologies.
- Evaluate airway impingement in naso/oropharyngeal airways.
This course aims to empower general dentists with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively integrate CBCT into their practice, improving diagnostic accuracy and patient outcomes.

- Understand and identify uses of CBCT imaging in dental diagnostics to integrate it into routine procedures.
- Analyze CBCT images to identify dental conditions and anomalies.
- Enhance precision of endodontic diagnosis and treatment with CBCT.
- Improve accuracy and success of dental implants using CBCT.
- Recognize common abnormalities and pathologies.
- Evaluate airway impingement in naso/oropharyngeal airways.
This course aims to empower general dentists with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively integrate CBCT into their practice, improving diagnostic accuracy and patient outcomes.

Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology Mini-Residency at UCSD
Cone Beam CT and its capabilities for more detailed imaging information and communication have changed the landscape of dentistry.
This mini-residency is an update of the standard of care in the diagnosis, treatment planning, and treating patients and the dental/medical-legal implications.
The mini-residency also features DEXIS CBCT scans, several applications of DTX software, and many artificial intelligence applications in dental radiology.
Day 1
January 15th, 2026
8:30 to 12:00
- Anatomy. Various anatomic structures of the oral and maxillofacial area and their common radiological appearance using intraoral, extraoral, and cone beam CT images.
- Multiplanar reconstructions. Axial, coronal, and sagittal views are used to describe the anatomy.
- Radiographic guidelines. Visualize bony lesions in 3 dimensions.
1:30 to 5:00
- Cyst and benign lesions. Overview of the benign lesion that can develop from both odontogenic and nonodontogenic tissues in the maxilla and mandible.
- Neural and vascular lesions.
- Fibro-osseous lesions. Fibrous dysplasia in the jaw and their multiple presentations. Their specific radiographic presentations in establishing a diagnosis.
- Malignancies. Malignant lesions often have serious consequences, including disfigurement and death. The radiographic characteristic appearance of malignancies.
- Role of radiographic imaging in diagnosis. Osteonecrotic lesions and treatment options.
Day 2
January 16th, 2026
8:30 to 12:00
- Endodontics. Guidelines of the American Association of Endodontics
- The benefits and limitations of CBCT in endodontics.
- Identification of some differences in the diagnostic abilities of 2D- and 3D-imaging technologies.
- Management of CBCT in endodontics. Importance of assessing endodontic patients on an individual basis.
1:30 to 5:00
- Implant surgery. Dental CBCT is justified for presurgical diagnosis, preoperative planning, and preoperative transfer for oral implant rehabilitation.
- Periodontal disease. CBCT displays 3D images for the diagnosis of intra bony defects, furcation involvements, and buccal/lingual bone destructions.
Day 3
January 17th, 2026
8:30 to 12:00
- Dental surgery and dental impactions. Over projection between the third molar and the mandibular canal.
- Signs that suggest a close contact between the molar and the canal when to use CBCT.
- TMJ Assessment. Osteoarthritis (OA), juvenile OA, rheumatoid arthritis and related joint diseases, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, and other intra-articular conditions.
- CBCT used as a cost- and dose-effective imaging modality for the diagnostic assessment of a variety of TMJ conditions. CBCT has been found to be superior to conventional radiographical examinations as well as MRI in assessment of the TMJ.
1:30 to 5:00
- Sleep Apnea.
- Evaluation of the upper airway dimensions of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and control subjects using a cone-beam computed tomography.
- Assessment of the airway dimensions.
- Incidental findings on CBCT.
- With low to intermediate clinical importance.
- With potentially high clinical importance.
