چکیده
One of these characteristics is the possibility of making “digital adjustments” using image processing algorithms, which leads to a better display of various structures. Some software programs have different algorithms for “sharpening”, “pseudocoloring”, “inverting” and providing a high resolution in order to achieve a better image [1]. In addition, radiography has always been considered a valuable tool in the diagnosis of pulp diseases and in determining an appropriate treatment plan after clinical diagnosis [2]. Pulp calcification is a prevalent occurrence (Figure 1 and 2). Although estimation of the prevalence of such Abstract
