Dental radiography

1. Periapical Radiograph

3. (MAXILLARY PERIAPICAL
RADIOGRAPHS)

4. Radiograph of an
intact tooth 22
Radiograph of
the maxillary central
incisors

5. Radiograph of the nasopalatine canal system
apical to teeth 11 and 21

6. Distal eccentric projection,
targeted on tooth 12 (left)
Distal eccentric projection,
targeted on teeth 1 and 12 (left)
The incisive canal is superimposed
upon the root of tooth 11.

7. Distal eccentric projection, targeted on
teeth 11 & 12 (left)
Tooth 12 also exhibits a burn-out
effect at the cervical area, mesial
and distal on the crown of the tooth.
Mesial eccentric projection targeted
on tooth 13

8. Radiograph of the region of teeth 24 and 25
Note the burn-out effect in the crown of tooth 24.
Radiograph of the maxillary left premolars
Note the root formation of tooth 24. Proximal caries is
difficult to detect in periapical radiographs (note distal of
tooth 24).

9. Radiograph of the region of teeth 24 and 25
Note that tooth 24 exhibits three roots!
Radiographofteeth 24, 25 and 26
Note the position of the floor of the sinus, which must be
located between the buccal root tips and the palatal root
tip of tooth 26.

11. Radiograph of the region of
teeth 15 and 14 (left)
Radiograph of the
region of teeth 24 and 25
After the loss of one or more
molars. the maxillary sinus
has expanded toward the
alveolar crest and thus
appears "far down" in the
periapical radiograph.

12. Radiograph of the region of teeth 24
and 25
reveals how the septum divides the
anterior recess from the alveolar recess
of the sinus.
Radiograph of the region of
teeth 23 and 24

13. Periapical radiograph of the maxillary right molar region (left)
A well-demarcated chronic apical periodontitis on tooth 15 displaces
the maxillary sinus and shows signs of reactive sclerosis.
Radiograph of the tuberosity region, maxillary left

14. Radiograph of the molar and tuberosity regions,
maxillary left
Radiograph of the tuberosity region, maxillary left
The zygomatic process of the maxilla and the body of the
zygoma shadow the root tips of 27 and the tuberosity region.

16. (MANDIBULAR PERIAPICAL
RADIOGRAPHS)

17. Normal periapical
radiograph of the
mandibular anterior teethPeriapical radiograph
depicting vascular
canals

18. Radiograph of a mandibular
anterior segment clearly exhibiting
the mental fovea
This periapical radiograph of the
mandibular anterior region was taken
with a steep projection angle and
depicts the mental spine

19. Radiograph of tooth 33
and a two-rooted 34
Radiographofthe
region of teeth 33 and
34
Note the multiple
periodontal ligament
spaces resulting from the
root form.

20. Radiograph of a two-rooted tooth 43
Note the easily visible course of the lingual
portion of the alveolar ridge.
Radiograph of the region of teeth
33 and 34, with Enostosis
*Enostosis-also known as bone islands are
common benign sclerotic bone lesions that
usually represent incidental findings.

21. Periapical radiograph of the premolars, mandibular leftRadiograph of the left mandibular premolar
region, exhibiting a taurodont

22. Radiograph of tooth 44 with superimposition of the
mental foramen
Radiograph of the region
of teeth 45 and 46, showing sparse trabeculation

23. Periapical radiograph of the region of teeth 36 and 37
Radiograph of the region of tooth 48
The apex of the nonvital toot 48 is superimposed on
the mandibular canal.

24. Periapical radiograph (steep projection angle) of the
region of tooth 46
In this film and also in Figure 215 the mylohvoidline
appears super-imposed upon the mandibular canal
because of the steep projec-tionangle.
