Assessment of the type and length of separated endodontic instruments in root-filled mandibular molars: A comparative study using digital periapical radiographs and CBCT
Digital periapical radiography outperformed CBCT in detecting SI in filled root canals of mandibular molars and should be the preferred modality. Furthermore, SI detectability varies with imaging modality, depending on instrument type and fragment length.
