Dental radiography has long been a fascinating and useful diagnostic tool in the field of dentistry with the ever-increasing number of imaging modalities this has never been more true. The only sort of (non-surgical) bone examination necessary for implant therapy is radiography. The decision to image and which imaging modalities to utilize is dependent on several variables, including identifying the quality and amount of bone in order to decide the optimal position for implant placement, detecting  the presence or absence of pathosis, and patient availability at a reasonable expense. Furthermore, while selecting radiographic examinations, it is critical to reduce patient exposure to radiation to a minimum. This article reviews current implant planning concepts utilizing various radiographic modalities, as well as their application to enhance the clinician's role in efficient implant placement. The importance of pre-surgical treatment planning for successful implant therapy cannot be overstated. In this case, diagnostic imaging is critical. Various imaging techniques are accessible to help in the placement of the implant in the correct position with respective facility and predictability. Among the modalities referenced are intraoral radiography, panoramic radiography, computed tomography and cone beam CT. The use of CBCT is utilized by the specialist to outline the method of the course of nerves in the jawbone and to decide the legitimate insert length. Inserts ought not be embedded into the sinuses. The vicinity of maxillary sinus may be accurately seen with CBCT. The surgeon can take exact measurements and pick the optimal implant length to prevent puncturing the maxillary sinus. For the optimal support, the right implant size can be chosen. The surgeon can use CBCT to analyze the accessible bone and select the dimensions that are suitable for the region. The CBCT programming produces improved picture, oblique and curved planar reorganization. Furthermore, minimizing the patient's radiation dosage during radiographic testing should always be a primary priority.
