What is the error in this PA radiograph
The film is placed too posterior and does not have a clearance above the occlusal cusps of 2.5mm
What is dropped film corner and what angle technique is it most commonly seen in?
Dropped film corner is caused due to teh finger technqiue used by patients to hold the film in place during a bisecting angle technique
What is the error in this PA radiograph
Dropped film corner
What is the error in this PA radiograph
the film was placed too high causing a space of greater than 2.5mm above the cusps which can effect the capturing of the apical structures
What is the error in this PA radiograph
It is caused due to patient not biting onto the bite block resulting in a lack of capturing the apices
What is the error in this PA radiograph
Absence of the apical regions of the tooth
What is the error in this PA radiograph
Cone cutting
What is the error in this PA radiograph and what can it be caused from
It is an overlapping of the buccal and lingual cusps caused when the horizontal angle technique is not done correctly
What is the error in this PA radiograph and why can that lead too this image forming?
It is caused due to reversed conventional film resulting in the lead foil pointing towards the PID. The lead foil allows absorbing any unnecessary radiation exposure to the patient
What is the error in this PA radiograph
Digital film is placed towards PID
What is the error in this PA radiograph
This is due to a lowering in the angulation of the PID in bisecting angle technique causing a elongation in the image
What is the error in this PA radiograph
Increased angulation in the PID in bisecting angle technique causing a foreshortening in the image
What is the error in this PA radiograph
Blurring of image caused by patient movement
What is the error in this PA radiograph
Double exposure of the same film
What is the error in this PA radiograph
Cobalt chrome partial denture kept in patient mouth
What is the error in this PA radiograph
Thyroid shield
What is the error in this PA radiograph
Film bending
What is the error in this PA radiograph
Phalangioma
What is the error in this bitewing radiograph
Too posterior
What is the error in this bitewing radiograph
Too anterior
What is the error in this bitewing radiograph
Cone cutting
What is the error in this bitewing radiograph
Poor horizontal angulation
What is the error in this bitewing radiograph
Radiolucency of dentures
What is film density
Film density represents the darkness of the radiographic image
If the density of the image is too high what kind of image will we get?
Dark
If the density of the image is too low what kind of image will that give us
Bright
