  Cone beam computed tomography is an imaging technique that consists of X-ray computed imaging where the X-rays reflect and diverge, creating a cone-shaped beam. The cones are formed as the rays are deflected by colliding with a mirror and the resulting image is viewed from the inside of the cone. Cone-beam computed imaging uses the power of a computer to create images using the principle of diffraction and is very efficient in obtaining high quality images. Market Dynamics Increasing prevalence of dental disorders is expected to propel growth of the global cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) market . For instance, according to the Centers for Diseases Control and Prevention’s Oral Health Surveillance Report, 2019, the prevalence of untreated tooth decay in primary teeth was 10% among children aged 2–5 years and 16% among those 6–8 years during 2011-2016. Moreover, approval and launch of new products is also expected to aid in growth of the market. For instance, in December ...
