The results of this study indicate that CBCT using MPR from different machines is a reproducible method for measuring root length during different phases of orthodontic treatment. When interpreting root shortening measurements in CBCT using MPR for clinical or research purposes, values below 2 mm should be approached with caution, as they may contain measurement errors.
