BACKGROUND This study aimed at documenting information on appearance, size, horizontal and vertical locations of Mental Foramen (MF) in Panoramic Radiograph. We also analyzed the age and gender differences with radiographic appearance and location of MF. We evaluated these findings in our population and co-relate with results of previous studies. MATERIAL AND METHODS 1662 panoramic radiograph...

A 53-year-old Caucasian female presented to the Oral Medicine Department at the hospital of the University of Pennsylvania for consultation regarding facial pain. A panoramic radiograph revealed multilocular radiolucencies in the right articular eminence. A CT scan was then performed, and the radiolucencies were determined to be pneumatization of the articular eminence.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the detection of mucous retention cyst of maxillary sinus (MRCMS) using panoramic radiography and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). STUDY DESIGN A digital database with 6,000 panoramic radiographs was reviewed for MRCMS. Suggestive images of MRCMS were detected on 185 radiographs, and patients were located and invited to return for follow-up. Thirty patients returned...

The mandibular canal bifid and trifid are variations of the canal. This variation themandibular is essential to recognize in surgical procedures involving mandibles, such as extraction ofimpacted third molars, dental implant treatment, sagittal split ramus osteotomy. purpose this study wasto determine prevalence by panoramic radiograph at RSGM Unsyiah BandaAceh. research method descriptive coll...

Impaction is defined as the failure of a tooth to erupt in its appropriate site in the dental arch within its normal period of growth (Preda et al., 1997). The frequency of individual based permanent tooth eruption disturbances is 20% the overwhelming majority of impacted teeth involve third molars, followed by maxillary canines and the mandibular second premolars (Grover and Lorton, 1985). Max...

objectives: this study sought to assess the relation of mandibular cortical index (mci) with age, gender and gonial angle size in an iranian adult population using digital panoramic radiography. methods: we evaluated 370 digital panoramic radiographs of patients and divided them into five 10-year age groups. each radiograph was assigned to low (≤120°) or high (≥125°) angle groups in terms of th...

The purpose of this paper is to present the first case of unusual reverse oblique (110 degrees to midsagittal plane) migration of mandibular right canine crossing the jaw midline and piercing the lower border of the mandible at the level of the opposite canine and also to report two more cases of transmigrated mandibular canine and one case of transmigrating mandibular canine. Mandibular canine...

BACKGROUND Infraorbital ethmoid cells, also known as Haller's cells can be seen on panoramic radiographs. These help in identification of various pathologies and patient symptoms. OBJECTIVE To determine the prevelance and characteristic of Haller's cells on panoramic radiographs. Infraorbital ethmoid cells are extensions of ethmoid air cells into areas of orbit and maxillary sinus. MATERIAL...

Background: Panoramic radiography is a two-dimensional dental x-ray examination that captures the entire mouth in a single image, including the teeth, upper and lower jaws, surrounding structures and tissues. The study was conducted to report the incidental findings on panoramic radiographs. Materials & Methods: This study was conducted in the department of Oral Medicine & Radiology in year 201...

Osteoporosis screening using dental X-Ray images has been growing an interesting research. Existing methods for osteoporosis screening have been performed using the dental periapical or panoramic in X-Ray images. There was limited research using both the periapical and panoramic due to the expensive cost of obtaining data. This paper presents a combination of the periapical and panoramic images...
