Abstract
Discovery of X-Rays is the beginning point of the medical imaging which developed and diversified in years. Since early days of X-Ray discovery they are used in also for imaging of teeth, in 1896, Dr. Otto Walkhoff imaged his mouth with X-Ray exposure. X-Rays helped the dentists to diagnose tooth decays and bone loss, examine dental structures and identify abnormalities of these structures. Today developments in technology resulted in different imaging techniques, X-Rays are used for Projectional Radiography and Computed Tomography, besides there are Nuclear Imaging, Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Ultrasound Imaging that widely used. In this review, imaging techniques for dental applications with the extension of artificial intelligence is examined to provide a brief information.
