Summary

Overcoming the vertical and horizontal bone deficiency in the posterior maxillae are considered as the most challenging scenarios for implant-supported oral rehabilitation in modern implant dentistry. Therefore, a comprehensive and precise understanding of such anatomical structures are needed to avoid potential complications that ultimately might jeopardize the treatment outcome. Cone-beam computerized tomography (CBCT) offers some advantages to conventional CT-scan such as lower-dose radiation with high isotropic spatial resolution and cost. Therefore, it offers a viable and reliable tool to study anatomical structures such as the posterior atrophic maxillae

Conditions
