Guest guest Posted February 26, 2012 Report Share Posted February 26, 2012 Hi,Looking at the IOPA of LR 876 --- I think that radiolucency in the mesial aspect of LR7 might be a cavity because the outline of the cervical part of the crown of the tooth is not even, it breaks forming a tiny notch..Alternatively it may be what they call "a cervical burnout". Although, as far as I remember, if cervical burnout happens,--one can see it in the cervical parts of all the teeth on the Xray. Here, the possible burnout is present only on LR7..

Also i uploaded the image in the photo album as well.. The digital peraipical radiograph shows the lower right(i think)third,second ,first molars.The Lower right first molar has a crown and a post in the distal root which is short in length and deviate from the long axis of the root.There is an area of radiolucency in both roots,however,the mesial root has more extensive radiolucency which in continuity with periodontal ligament.Canals are not filled by the apex,and the third canal is indistinct.Poor crown margins and appearance of root caries is visible on distal aspect of the LR6...I did not describe the rest of teeth-basically fillings and on LR7 area of radiolucency under the filling,maybe suggestive a carious lesion.Correct me if I am wrong please.Perio status-early loss of lamina dura-possibly a localised gingivitis due to the ledge/poor margin on the LR6 and mesially tipped LR7 SincerelyLyudmyla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
