The study aims to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) in assessing maxillofacial trauma and its impact on clinical outcomes. A cross-sectional analysis was conducted on a cohort of patients presenting with maxillofacial injuries, comparing CBCT results with traditional diagnostic methods such as X-rays and clinical examinations. The diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of CBCT were assessed, and its role in identifying fractures, soft tissue injuries, and other traumatic anomalies was explored. Clinical outcomes, including treatment planning, post-operative recovery, and complication rates, were analyzed to determine the contribution of CBCT to improving patient management. The results showed that CBCT provided superior imaging clarity and diagnostic precision, particularly in complex fractures and anatomical regions difficult to assess with conventional imaging techniques. The study concluded that CBCT significantly enhances the diagnostic process, leading to more accurate treatment decisions and improved clinical outcomes in patients with maxillofacial trauma.
