High - 6 months
moderate - 12months
low - 12-18 months
Child permanent dentition, how frequent should radiographs be taken for high, moderate + low caries risk
high - 6 months
moderate - 12 months
low - 24 months
what type radiographs should be taken for child with caries risk
bite wing radiographs
what are the 3 categories of trauma of tooth
crown fracture
root fracture
luxation injuries
luxation injuries 6 sub categories of concussion
sub luxation intrustion extrustion lateral extrusion avulsion
what is concussion to tooth
injury to tooth but tooth not lose or displaced in socket
sub luxation
incomplete/ partial dislocation of tooth
intrusion
displacement of tooth into alveolar bone/socket
extrusion
movement of tooth out of socket and beyond natural plane
avulsion
displacement of tooth from alveolar socket completely
when should you do follow up radiographs for minor tooth trauma
6 months after treatment
annually until root formation complete
what are vital pulp procedures + what do you have to do before doing it Name procedures
treating pulp with intention of keeping it alive instead of removing it
baseline radiograph
pulpotomy + pulpectomy
what treatment to completely remove pulp
root canal
what is non vital tooth
dead tooth - pulp not living
what radiographs need to be done for full endodontic treatment on non vital tooth
pre operative working length mid fill post operative - assess success follow up - 1yr after treatment
if pocketing in perio disease is 3.5-5.5mm what is BPE score + what radiographs to be taken?
score 3 - little/no recession
horizontal bitewings or supplemented selected anterior peri-apicals
if pocketing in perio disease is 5.5 + mm what is BPE score + what radiographs to be taken?
score 4
vertical bitewings or
supplemented selected anterior peri-apicals
if pocketing in perio disease is generalised what radiographs to be taken?
panoramic radiograph + supplemented peri apical
or
complete series of peri-apical radiographs
how many radiographs for orthodontics
2 radiographs - lateral cephalogram + panoramic
why you need 2 radiographs for orthodontics
orthodontic problems:
impacted teeth
space/crowd teeth
malocclusion
why you need to take panoramic radiograph in orthodontics
check: state of dentition state of periodontal health un erupted teeth if any lesions
what are less common problems that radiographs in kids need to be taken for
cysts
tumours
bony lesions
what are other modalities available
CBCT ultrasound medical CT MRI PET
what is CBCT and what is it mainly used for
Cone beamed CT
esp in kids, wisdom teeth, implants, un erupted teeth, lesions, cysts
what radiographs mainly used
bitewings
peri-apicals
occlusal
panoramic
