A Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Effectiveness and Safety of Dual Energy Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (DE-CBCT) Imaging for Quantitative Measurement of Jaw Bone Density
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Dual-energy computed tomography scan for Dental Diseases. Completed, enrolled 26 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary
Current radiologic imaging modalities used in dentistry provide information on the morphology of the hard tissues. Additional information on the density of bone has practical relevance, for example, in dental implant treatment planning, where local bone quality is a known strong predictor of successful implant osseointegration. The Dual-Energy Cone Beam Computed Tomography (DE-CBCT) device is designed to overcome limitations of traditional imaging and will provide assessment of jaw bone density in additional to morphological information. This clinical trial will examine the application of DE-CBCT to assess jaw bone density and compare Hounsfield units (HU) values with multidetector CT, an established standard for assessing BD.
