چکیده

Dental radiography is an essential component in the delivery of high-quality dental care for dogs and cats. During the 1980s veterinarians began taking radiographs of teeth using standard radiographic units; however, these units made patient positioning difficult and often resulted in suboptimal films. In the 1990s dental radiographic units became a more common part of the veterinary dental diagnostic workup, and by the year 2000 many state-of-the-art veterinary practices were switching over to digital dental radiography. This session focuses on the value of taking dental radiographs, how to take digital dental radiographs, special features available with digital dental radiographic units, advantages and disadvantages of digital dental radiography, indications for taking dental radiographs, positioning for optimal dental radiographs, critiquing dental radiographs, and the importance of recognizing dental radiographic lesions.

Quality comparison of direct digital panoramic radiography and computed radiography panoramic

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Digital panoramic X-ray images can be captured using photostimulable phosphors or solid-state detectors (i.e. charge-coupled devices and Flat-Panels). The first category is defined as computed radiography (CR) or semi-direct radiography. The second technology that uses solid-state detectors is known as direct digital radiography (DDR). Both of these technologies have their o...

Agreement of Bitewing and Digital Panoramic Radiographies in the Detection of Proximal Caries

Background & Aims: Conventional radiography is used for the diagnosis of problems such as dental caries and failure in root canal therapy. The diagnosis accuracy of conventional radiography is acceptable in the evaluation of anatomical and pathological structures. However, it seems that by using digital radiography we can obtain more information in this field. The aim of this study is to compar...

Dental Imaging - advances in conventional and digital radiography.PDF

Introduction Digital dental radiography was introduced in 1987, and many thought this technology would quickly take over as the standard in dental radiology. However, this has not been the case as only 7% to 8% of dental professionals currently use digital imaging systems (1). Many dentists have been resistant to change as the diagnostic quality of digital radiography has been questionable when...

Estimation of Remnant Dentin Thickness under Proximal Caries Using Digital Bitewing Radiography: An In-Vitro Study

Objectives: In restorative dentistry, it is essential to estimate the amount of remnant tooth structure after caries removal to make the best treatment plan. The present study was aimed to determine whether there is a correlation between the real thickness of remnant dentin under carious lesion and the radiographical measurement from photostimulable phosphor plates (PSPs). Methods: a whole numb...
