Discussion

Retrospective study finds CBCT identifies periapical lesions in root canal treatments, suggesting enhanced diagnostic capabilities.

CBCT successfully detected apical periodontitis in 46.69% of examined teeth, helping to assess endodontic outcomes.
Among 876 root canal-treated teeth, poor obturation quality was linked to periapical pathology, emphasizing diagnostic importance.
This retrospective analysis on 258 patients highlights the need for careful imaging techniques to assess endodontic health.
Findings suggest the selective use of CBCT for complex cases improves diagnosis, following current ESE recommendations.

Diaconu et al. (2025) studied this question.
