COMPLETE SOLUTIONS (A+)
xray |benefits
- DETECT |DISEASE
- minimize |& |prevent |toothaches, |surgery
- saves |time |& |money, |prevents |edentulismlosing |all |teeth
xray |use
- DETECT | diseases, | lesions, | trauma, | foreign | objects
- bone |levels |deteriorating, |evaluate |growth |& |developement
what |can |be |found |xray
missing |teeth
- may |lead |to |occlusion |problems |as |a |result |of |drifting |or |tipping
- orthodontic |treatment |in |the |absence |of |teeth |can |prevent |occlusion |problems
- conditions: |hereditary |ectodermal |dysplasia, |books |syndrome, |riegers |syndrome*
radiograph
aka |radiogram
|
a |picture |that |is, |a |visible |photographic |record |on |a |film |produced |by |the |passage |of |x-
rays |through |an |object |or |body
- can |ONLY |be |prescribed |by |DENTISTS
- should |never |be |routine/predetermined
,impacted/embedded |teeth
- MOST | COMMON | development | defects
- should |be |removed |surgerically |to |prevent |odontogenic |cyst |formation, |damage |of
|adjacent |teeth |and |bone |resorption |which |may |lead |to |fractions
impacted |tooth
- one | tooth | is | PREVENTED | FROM | ERUPTING | due | being | wedged | up
| against | a |neighbouring |tooth
- ALWAYS | necessary | to | extract
- most |common: |third |molars, |premolars, |max |cuspid |(canine), |supernumerary
embedded | tooth
- if |a |tooth |is |not |breaking |though |the |gum |because |of |being |UNDER |BONE
- tooth |is |being |blocked |by |the |gum |it |may |lack |the |force |necessary |to |break |thru |the
|gum
dental |caries
- bitewings | for | interproximal | various |lesions
- pulse |of |tooth |dies
- if |left |untreated, |can |result |in |destruction |of |a |large |amount |of |tooth |structure |and |pulp |all
|necrosis
- decay |may |recur |under |the |margins |of |existing |restorations |and |may |or |may |not |be
|seen |clinically
- black |circular |areas |on | xray
- rampant |dental |caries, | recurrent | decay, | early | root |caries
rampant |dental |caries
,recurrent |decay
early |root |caries
periodontal | disease
- disease |of |the |BONE
- CANNOT | be | diagnosed | wo | xray
- xrays |enable |to |identify |predisposing |factors |(calculus |faulty |restorations, |bony
|changes |including |furcation |involvement)
- provide |baseline |info |concerning |periodontist, |can |be |used |as |pretreatment |reference
|source
furcation |involvement
- generally |seen |in |MOLARS
- bone | has | come | down, | created | a | SPACE/HOLE | between | the | bone | and | gums
dilacerated | roots
- SHARP |BEND |of |the |roots |or |a |sharp |bend |bw |the |crown |and |root
- caused |by |some |traumatic |episode |during |tooth |formation
- produces |CHALLENGES |IF |EXTRACTION |IS |NECESSARY
retained | root | tips
- root |tips |or |fragments |are |sometimes |left |behind |following |a |complicated |tooth
|extraction
- retained |root |tips |are |usually |asympomatic
- ONLY | discovered | by | xrays
- usually |dont |require |extraction, |should |PERIODICALLY |be |re-evaluted
, periapical | lesions
- the |MOST |COMMON |radiographic |appearance |of |a |periapical |lesion |is |the
|RADIOLUCENCY |(dark) |area |at |root |apex
- a |diagnosis |of |periodical |cyst, |granuloma |or |abcesses |cant |be |made |based |on |xray
|findings |alone
other |lesions
- numerous |dental |anomalies, |cysts, |tumours |& |diseases |affect |the |jaws
- lesions |may |persist |for |years |before |signs |& |symptoms |develop
- xray |play |VITAL |role |in |the |detection
- the |importance |of |EARLY |detection |& |diagnosis |cannot |be |OVERSTATED
interpretation

- ablity |to |read |whats |revealed |by |an |xray
- an |EXPLANATION |of |what's |viewed
- dental |hygienist |prepares |a |preliminary |interpretation |& |presents |the |findings |to
