SUMMARY AIM : to deduce if cone beam computed tomography can be a main diagnostic tool in everyday work of the odontologist, by analysing recent scientific articles in order to establish its advantages and disadvantages in comparison to standard radiological methods. Materials and methods : study was conducted by one investigator according to PRISMA- Protocol. Studies were collected from PubMed and Research Gate, between June and December 2018. Articles were excluded during screening and eligibility due to non-English, non-human, older than 2014 . Leaving systematic reviews/case reports included. Results : 3D Cone beam computerised technology (3D CBCT) offers three dimensional and more complex imaging compared to conventional radiographic methods. It is an accurate tool for many clinical cases, with lower radiation doses than standard computerised tomography, and with newest technologies even with conventional panoramic X-ray. This systemic review determined the clinical value of this imagining technique in everyday work of an odontologist. Factors considered in use 3D CBCT device include cost, time and amount of images required to generate and collect proper data , responsibility for its interpretation. Data sources for this review are scientific articles about usage of cone beam technologies, clinical cases and comparison between imagining methods, as well as newest technological advancement in the field of dental imagining. Conclusions : cone beam computed tomography as a diagnostic tool showed great success in everyday work of odontologists , due to broad spectrum of its use and high accuracy. CBCT has higher success rate in diagnostics than any other conventional methods. Even though, costs, and general lack of information about the technology occurs, in the future it could become a golden standard methods for providing any diagnosis and treatment planning. Key words : 3DCBCT, dentistry, diagnostics diagnostic imaging ,
