The authors would like to correct the errors in the publication of the original article. The corrected details are given below for your reading.
On page 21, Abstract, Results: They should be replaced with "For the C mode, the P mode at the maxilla, and the P mode at the mandible, the CCs were 0.058 μSv/mGycm2, 0.081 μSv/mGycm2, and 0.076 μSv/mGycm2, respectively. For the I mode, the CCs at the maxilla and mandible were 0.097 μSv/mGycm2 and 0.122 μSv/mGycm2, respectively. For the D mode at the maxillary incisors, molars, and mandibular molars, the CCs were 0.050 μSv/mGycm2, 0.052 μSv/mGycm2, and 0.197 μSv/mGycm2, respectively". Conclusion: It should be replaced with "The CCs in one CBCT device with fixed 80 kV ranged from 0.050 μSv/mGycm2 to 0.197 μSv/mGycm2~".
On page 26, Tables 8, 9, and 10 contain some errors. The corrected versions of them are given below:

Page 25, Results, The patient effective dose: Sentences from second to fourth should be replaced with "The effective doses in the adult exposure setting were 216.44 μSv in the C mode and 365.70 μSv and 344.61 μSv in the P mode for the maxilla and mandible, respectively. Additionally, the effective doses for the I mode in the maxilla and mandible were 187.17 μSv and 236.10 μSv, respectively. In the D mode, the effective doses were 28.51 μSv, 31.81 μSv, and 127.77 μSv for the maxillary incisors, maxillary molars, and mandibular molars, respectively."
Page 25, Results, The conversion coefficients: Sentences from second to fourth should be replaced with "For the C mode, the P mode at the maxilla, and the P mode at the mandible, the conversion coefficients were 0.058 μSv/mGycm2, 0.081 μSv/mGycm2, and 0.076 μSv/mGycm2, respectively. For the I mode, the conversion coefficients at the maxilla and mandible were 0.097 μSv/mGycm2 and 0.122 μSv/mGycm2, respectively. For the D mode at the maxillary incisors, molars, and mandibular molars, the conversion coefficients were 0.050 μSv/mGycm2, 0.052 μSv/mGycm2, and 0.197 μSv/mGycm2, respectively."
Page 28: Sentence of the last paragraph should be replaced with "In summary, the present study demonstrates the conversion coefficients in one CBCT device with fixed 80 kV ranged from 0.050 μSv/mGycm2 to 0.197 μSv/mGycm2~".
