Cone Beam computed Tomography (CBCT) is currently being universally utilized for various dental applications and research projects
The knowledge and acceptance related to the usage of 3 dimensional Cone Beam Computed Tomography (3D CBCT) in human bite mark imaging were assessed with 10 questions which were oriented on knowledge of 3D CBCT and 5 questions on the acceptance of 3D CBCT imaging procedures from the bite mark imaging point of view
52.23% of study participants believed that a national level 3D CBCT based bite mark registry could assist with law enforcement
Summary
Cone Beam computed Tomography (CBCT) is currently being universally utilized for various dental applications and research projects. A huge majority of the scientific community continues to describe and quantify the three-dimensional bite patterns in two dimensions which implies distortion and loss of information [1]. The recent development of three-dimensional methods for bite mark analysis has become a highlighted procedure when compared to the traditional methods [2,3]. The knowledge in using CBCT in bite mark analysis is not widely exploited and its social outcome is debatable, which is why this study is crucial in evaluating the social and economic impact of bite mark analysis outcome using 3D of CBCT. In this study the target respondents are the adult public of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia to assess their knowledge and their awareness towards human bite mark image using 3D CBCT and a possible bite mark registry for a future biometric purpose
