Effect of dental restorations and prostheses on radiotherapy dose distribution: a Monte Carlo study
Dental restorations, fixed prosthodontics, and implants affect dose distribution in head and neck radiation therapy due to the high atomic number of the materials utilized. The backscatter of electrons from metallic materials due to the impinging treatment x‐ray results in localized dose enhancement...
