Popis: ABSTRACT Objective: To investigate the influence of dynamic visualization of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans on orthodontist’s assessment of positioning status and prognosis of interradicular mini-implants (MI). Methods: Three MI positions were virtually simulated in thirty CBCT volumes: (1) MI 1 mm from the lamina dura (LD), (2) MI touching the LD and (3) MI overlapping the LD. Each position was exposed to orthodontists (n = 35) as panoramic reconstruction, sagittal reconstruction and a sequence of axial slices. Each orthodontist evaluated the MI position (relationship with the LD) and scored the prognosis using a four-point scale (the higher the score, the better the prognosis). Kappa, Friedman and Nemenyi statistics were used. Results: Statistically significant associations were detected between the prognosis scores and the type of image visualized (p
