OBJECTIVE To explore the relationship between cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) measurements and direct measurements during the surgery to correct intrabony defects. METHODS Forty-four patients with 44 intrabony defects who finished initial periodontal therapy and were considered for periodontal surgery were recruited. Digital periapical radiography and CBCT was performed before the surger...

Statement of Problem: Digital Subtraction Radiography (DSR) needs reproducible alignment between the x-ray source, the object, and the film for obtaining identical projections of the same anatomic region. Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of bite registrations (placed on individual bite blocks) on the reproducibility of parallel periapical radiographs, obtained every 2 m...

ABSTRACT The aim of this study is to report an unusual case actinomycosis in the maxilla region asymptomatic patient. A 21-year-old white man was referred for analysis panoramic radiography and cone beam computed tomography, where it observed presence a hypodense lesion on left side maxilla, which extended from maxillary central incisor second premolar. During intraoral examination, depression ...

Relevance . Caries and premature loss of teeth is among the causes development malocclusion. develops with greater frequency on proximal occlusal surfaces mandibular first molars, which increases risk periapical complications due to late diagnosis tooth decay. Students Russian Ministry Defense schools for comprehensive education belong reserve units law enforcement authorities, agencies service...

The radix entomolaris is an anatomical variation characterized by the presence of additional root located in distal-lingual region mandibular molars. An accurate diagnosis necessary to plan and institute effective endodontic therapy for teeth with this condition. aim report was present three cases management permanent first molars using contemporary technical resources. For diagnosis, periapica...

Objectives. To compare the ability of endodontists to determine the size of apical pathological lesions and select the most appropriate choice of treatment based on lesions' projected image characteristics using 2 D and 3 D images. Study Design. Twenty-four subjects were selected. Radiographic examination of symptomatic study teeth with an intraoral periapical radiograph revealed periapical les...

OBJECTIVES This study aimed to compare the accuracy of conventional intraoral (CI) radiography, photostimulable phosphor (PSP) radiography, cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) for detection of strip and root perforations in endodontically treated teeth. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mesial and distal roots of 72 recently extracted molar were endodonticall...
