ABSTRACT
Diagnosis of sialolithiasis usually needs the combination of clinical and imaging-based examination. The use of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in patients with sialolithiasis has been increasing in dental practice in recent years. CBCT has some advantages in the diagnosis and treatment of sialolithiasis. However, CBCT should not be considered as the first choice for the diagnosis and treatment of sialolithiasis, and it is suitable to be used in the case of complex sialolithiasis which can not be diagnosed by traditional imaging methods. The research progress of the use of CBCT in the diagnosis of sialolithiasis is reviewed.
