Panoramic Radiologic Appraisal of Anomalies of the Dentition: Chapter 4 – Tooth Structure
نویسنده
چکیده
Developmental anomalies in tooth structure can involve dental enamel, dentin, pulp, cementum, or a combination of these tissues. While relatively precise typing of some of these anomalies is now possible using techniques in molecular biology, radiography remains important in the assessment of phenotypic manifestations and is often essential in treatment-planning for esthetics and function of dental restorations. The panoramic radiograph provides a useful overview of the dentition both for dental anomalies affecting all teeth and for those that are localized to a specific region. The panoramic radiograph may need to be supplemented by selected periapical images when restorative procedures are to be planned.
