INTRODUCTION External root resorption (ERR) is associated with physiological and pathological dissolution of mineralized tissues by clastic cells and radiography is one of the most important methods in its diagnosis. The aim of this experimental study was to evaluate the accuracy of conventional intraoral radiography (CR) in comparison with digital radiographic techniques, i.e. charge-coupled d...

Contact: +919837100900 Email: [email protected] Mesiodens is a type of supernumerary tooth located between maxillary central incisors. It is usually a small tooth with a coneor peg shaped crown and a short root. It may be single or paired, erupted or impacted and at times even inverted....

Abstract Background Radiographic analysis of tooth morphology is mandatory for accurate calibration the degree canal curvature angle and radiographic working length to its real dimensions in case difficulty assessment protocols. This study aimed determine impact root on maintaining original axis prepared canals using a reciprocating rotary instrumentation technique. Methods image was performed ...

Radiologic supportive examinations are still the primary choice in helping dentists establish a diagnosis and treatment plan. Radiography is basis of diagnostic imaging dentistry because main focus this field hard tissue teeth bone supporting teeth. Dental radiographic examination an that supports establishment diagnosis, making prognosis, planning, to evaluate results has been carried out on p...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the efficacy of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and digital intraoral radiography in diagnosing simulated small external root resorption cavities. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cavities were drilled in 159 roots using a small spherical bur at different root levels and on all surfaces. The teeth were imaged both with intraoral digital ...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the extent of the crack of a cracked tooth on an artificial simulation model with Periapical Radiography (PR) and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) in vitro, providing the basis for early diagnosis and an appropriate treatment plan. METHODS Forty-four teeth with different extents of artificial cracks, created by exposure to liquid nitroge...

Aim. To report a case with an unusual drainage route of periapical inflammation exiting through the gingival sulcus of an adjacent vital tooth and review probable factors determining the diversity of the discharge routes of periapical inflammation. Summary. An 18-year-old male patient presented with periodontal abscess of tooth 46, which was found to be caused by a periapical cyst with an acute...

BACKGROUND Hypertension (HTN) is the most commonly encountered systemic disease in general population. Nutrient canals contain blood vessels and nerves that mostly appear in the anterior mandibular region. Nutrient canals are not detected in radiographs of all patients, and their normalcy is controversial by many investigators. OBJECTIVES The present study investigated the correlation between...
