If You Want Your Patients to See the Light...Dental radiographs provide them with visual evidence and an opportunity for you to shine
How?
Very few patients can spot a periapical area; earn their respect by showing it to them. Point out the disappearance of the lamina dura compared with more normal tooth apices. They’ll be proud of their new knowledge and even impressed with you, the source of this insight.
Hone Your Skills
Now you can sharpen your radiographic interpretation skills with our newest CE course, Dental Radiographs. It’s based on a handy new book from Quintessence Publishing, Interpreting Dental Radiographs, that will refresh your awareness of, among other things, the significance of sclerosing bone and how to differentiate cervical burnout from caries.
Considering Digital?
Before you make that decision, you should compare the three radiographs at the top of page 5. They are of the same tooth, taken at the same time, using three different systems: conventional film, film with intensifying cassette, and a digital system. You decide.
Easier Than You Think
If you see a radiolucent lesion that puzzles you, leaf through chapter 9; it will tell you all you need to know. And on page 94, there’s a great table that relates tooth injuries to the clinical findings and radiological appearances of concussion, subluxation, lateral/medial luxation, intrusion, extrusion, and avulsion. Flag that page and keep this book handy for easy reference.
