چکیده

It is a well known fact that conventional Dental radiographs were considered as an important part of dental care in the earlier times. Most of these radiographs are still practiced widely by a lot of dental practitioners. In the past, the field of "Dentistry" was precise and was considered related to dentition only. Along with clinical oral examination, the radiographs used to provide with a more complete view of the tooth and its associated structures. Now a days, Dentistry has elaborated its scope.
