Aabha, Ruchi Singla, Vivek Kapoor, Amandeep Singh Uppal

While performing endodontic treatment, every case is a new case, presenting new challenges. The internal anatomy of a tooth is very complex, more than what is evident on a radiograph. The advantages of CBCT imaging over conventional radiography in endodontic diagnosis is well documented. C-shape morphology presents special challenge to the endodontist as it is difficult to shape, clean, fill.
