PURPOSE This study was performed to determine the prevalence of maxillary canine impaction on a basis of a single panoramic radiograph in Bangladeshi population. MATERIALS AND METHODS A random sample of seven hundred panoramic radiographs was collected from the patient record of a dental clinic. All the selected panoramic radiographs were taken from January 2009 to August 2010 by a single pan...

BACKGROUND Mandibular cortical indices, like the mandibular cortical index (MCI), panoramic mandibular index (PMI), mental index (MI), antegonial index (AI) and gonial index (GI) have been developed to assess and quantify the quality of mandibular bone mass. Aim and Objectives : The aim of this pilot study was to measure the radiomorphometric indices in a digital panoramic radiograph and find t...

_Two-dimensional imaging modalities have been used in dentistry since the first intra-oral radiograph was taken in 1896. Significant progress in dental imaging techniques has since been made, including panoramic imaging and tomography, which enable reduced radiation and faster processing times. However, the imaging geometry has not changed with these commonly used intraoral and panoramic techno...

The aim of this study was to identify the shape and route of the bony canal of the posterior superior alveolar artery (PSAA) and posterior superior alveolar nerve (PSAN) using different identification methods, including computed tomography (CT), panoramic radiograph, and macroscopic evaluation (corpse and dry skull). Twenty-four patients were analyzed by CT and panoramic and posterior anterior ...

Panoramic radiograph is one of the routinely used investigations in dentistry. The value of panoramic radiograph is reduced when they are of poor diagnostic quality. Therefore, the aim of the study is to be aware of the common positional and technical errors so as to minimize such errors occurring in the department. Panoramic radiographs of all the patients, who were taking radiographs for thei...

The keratocystic odontogenic tumour (KCOT), formerly known as the odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is a benign intraosseous lesion that derives from remnants of the dental lamina. Due to its characteristics, clinical and histopathological features and various treatment approaches, this pathology is different comparing with other odontogenic cysts. Radiographically the KCOT appears as well-defined u...

one of the most common positioning errors in panoramic radiography is palatoglossal air space above the apices of the root of maxillary teeth. it causes a radiolucency obscuring the apices of maxillary teeth. in the case of this positioning error, the imaging should be repeated. this causes the patient be exposed to radiation again. to avoid the repetition of exposing harmful x-rays to the pati...

A 30-year-old male patient, RVD-reactive on treatment, presented with a fast-growing, painful swelling involving the mandible of unknown duration. panoramic radiograph (PR) and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging were performed. What are pertinent radiological features your diagnostic hypothesis?

Objectives: This review article is aimed to determine panoramic radiograph images of complex odontoma involving impacted teeth.
 Review: study a scoping consisting English or Indonesian articles in teeth and published 2010 – 2021. The search databases used were PubMed, Science Direct, EbscoHost, Clinical Key with the keyword “(((Complex Odontoma) AND Impacted teeth) radiograph).” selected ...
