ABSTRACT
Aim of the study: To compare orthopantomography (OPG) with computed tomography (CT) to analyze the relative advantages, disadvantages and necessity of these modalities.
Material and methods: Supported by narrative rewiew, we evaluated the necessity of CT and OPG in oral implantology practice.
Results: The analysis shows that CT preference was greater for implant planning in comparison to OPG.
Conclusions: The overall results suggested that CT has priority in assessing the parameters of implant site when compared to OPG.
