Conebeam imaging is here and getting more routine then you might think.

Case History: Patient presented with a complaint of pain around tooth #17. Clinical diagnosis was pericoronitis. When panoramic x-ray revealed a close association between the apices of #17 and the mandibular canal, the oral surgeon ordered a CT scan. From the CT it appeared that the mandibular canal passed between the roots of #17. The 3D reconstruction clearly shows this to be the case.
