Objectives. The aim of this study was to investigate intrasurgical and after surgical, pain and the incidence of after surgical alteration of sensation in the mandible and lower lip when placing implants in the posterior mandible using ridge mapping, panoramic radiography, and infiltration anesthesia. Methods. This was a longitudinal clinical study of healthy patients needing implant placement ...

BACKGROUND One of the most frequent concerns encountered in dental implant treatments is inadequate pre-operative planning. Panoramic radiographs are readily accessible and cost efficient. The aim of this study is to assess the accuracy of vertical measurements in mandibular molar and premolar region on panoramic radiography. MATERIALS AND METHODS Panoramic radiographs were made of a partiall...

The Journal of Clinical Pediatric Dentistry Volume 26, Number 3/2002 279 INTRODUCTION Facial growth tends to proceed along a vector composed of variable amounts of horizontal and vertical growth, as a result of osseous development at facial sutures, alveolar processes, mandibular condyles, and tooth eruption. Schudy reported that growth of the mandible was a principle-determining factor of faci...

A 23-year-old female patient presented with diffuse swelling causing intermittent pain involving the left side of face that had been present for over 10 years. Extra-oral examination revealed expansile lesions in maxilla and mandible, appeared mixed radiolucent-radiopaque on panoramic radiography. The maxillary lesion resulted opacification sinus. mandible trabecular bony changes larger radiolu...

Intraosseous vascular lesions are rare conditions. They are most commonly seen in the vertebral column and skull; nevertheless, the mandible is a quite rare location. In this report, we present a case of intraosseous cavernous hemangioma in the mandible and discuss the clinical and radiological features. A 28-year-old male patient attended to our clinic with a complaint of painless swelling of ...

The reliability of the linear tomography and panoramic radiography made with X-ray equipment was evaluated (Vera View Scope X-600; Morita). The sample was composed of 20 dry human hemimandibles, in which the area selected for analysis was 1.5 cm distal from the limit set before the mental foramen. Four measurements were made. The images obtained were drawn on acetate paper and the hemimandibles...

BACKGROUND Orthopantomography (panoramic radiography) has been used for the study of measurements involving particularly the prediction of the eruption of impacted lower third molars and analyses of measurements of the ramus and head of mandible. The discrepancies involved with the projection of this radiographic image has stimulated the search for further ways to use it, particularly in orthod...

conclusions: despite its known shortcomings, like every other diagnostic tool, panoramic radiography can contribute to the early detection of maxillary/mandibular lesions that in turn enable the dentist to devise an appropriate treatment plan. results: cysts were mostly more common in men despite the equal propensity of both genders to benign tumors. in contrast, women showed a higher frequency...

This integrative review aimed to discuss the clinical features and imaging aspects of squamous cell carcinoma in gnathic bones on panoramic radiographs cone-beam computed tomography. The electronic search was conducted PubMed, Embase, Scopus using keywords tomography, radiography, dentomaxillofacial complex, oral carcinoma. Studies between 2012 2022, report radiography tomography were selected....
