Revolutionary technology advances in computer science and energy sources being newly applied in the field of medicine are the main reasons for these transformations. The sectional imaging techniques, such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have most of the principles and qualities of the ideal imaging modality. This includes the determination of anatomic truth in terms of accurate portrayal of spatial orientation, size, form and relationships of desired structures or features, which require assessment of three-dimensional details. The aim of this review, illustrate by clinical cases, is to provide an overview of the importance of CT and MRI in the orthodontic field.
