Abstract :

The study was conducted to gauge the knowledge of dental practitioners regarding cone beam computed tomography. The research included 110 participants, among which were graduate and postgraduate practitioners. Participants were assessed about their knowledge, attitude and practice for cone beam computed tomography through a self–administered survey form upon which the study was based. The response rate was immense and there was a voluntary participation. Results were assessed and it was concluded that still a lot needs to be done to educate dental fraternity regarding CBCT as it is one of the newer developments in modern dentistry.
