Abstract: 【Abstract】 Objective:To investigate the clinical application value of CBCT in difficult root canal treatment . Methods: the clinical data of 45 cases of shooting CBCT in our hospital from 2014 July to 2015 March, which digital periapical film can not be confirmed were retrospectively analyzed. Results: 20 cases of suspected root fracture, diagnosed by CBCT and confirmed root fracture after removal in 13 cases, the diagnosis of no root fracture and had no abnormality after root canal treatment in 7 cases; 8 cases of calcified root tube assisted search; determine the root resorption in 7 cases; 10 cases of judging the extent and severity of periapical inflammation. Conclusion: CBCT imaging with high precision, can be observed in three-dimensional lesions, have obvious advantages in difficult root canal treatment than the digital periapical films.
