Abstract

INTRODUCTION: In the treatment of malocclusion, continuous monitoring of the three-dimensional relationship between dental roots and the surrounding alveolar bone is essential for preventing complications from orthodontic procedures. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) provides detailed root and bone data, but its high radiation dose limits its frequent use, consequently necessitating an alternative for ongoing monitoring.
