The role of basic sciences in diagnostic oral radiology.

29 Sep 2009 Although it is generally taken for granted that dental education must include both basic science and feature-based knowledge components, little is known about their relative roles in visual interpretation of radiographs. The objectives of this study ... Read more...

A novel 3D classification system for canine impactions--the KPG index.

30 Aug 2009 BACKGROUND: 3D cone beam imaging allows localization of impacted canines, using spatial relationships, with excellent tissue contrast. The aim of this project was to assess the degree of difficulty for the treatment of impacted canines, based on the ... Read more...

Clinical evaluations of coronectomy (intentional partial odontectomy) for mandibular third molars using dental computed tomography: a case-control study.

30 Aug 2009 PURPOSE: Studies have suggested that coronectomy reduces the risk of inferior alveolar nerve injury (IANI) when a close relationship with the inferior alveolar canal is indicated on panoramic imaging. However, the relationship between the inferior ... Read more...
