Abstract:
Objective To analyze the auxiliary diagnostic effect of oral cone beam computed tomography(CBCT)in root canal treatment of flight personnel.Methods Eighty flight personnel who underwent root canal treatment in Qingdao Special Service Rehabilitation Center of the Navy from February 2020 to February 2022 were enrolled in this study.All the patients received X-ray examination and oral CBCT.The number of detected root canals,root canal localization,and root canal treatment were analyzed.Results There were 235 root canals in the 80 patients.The detection rate of oral CBCT was significantly higher than that of X-ray examination(94.47%vs 87.66%,P<0.05).A total of 206 root canals were detected by both detection methods,and the Kappa value for consistency in the number of root canals detected was 0.643(P<0.05).The successful rate of root canal negotiation assisted by oral CBCT was significantly higher than that of X-ray examination(90.64%vs 82.98%,P<0.05).Conclusion Oral CBCT can effectively assist in the detection of complex root canals,increase the number of detected root canals and assist in the location of the root canals,check the calcification of root canals,and guide root canal negotiation,which provide a guarantee for complex root canal treatment of flight personnel.
