Fw: attempting description of x ray [1 Attachment]

[Guest guest]

Horizontal bitewing shows early horisontal bone loss in the area of LL5,LL6 and LL7.Calculus is visible around early mentioned teeth.Occlusal radiopaque restoration in relation to LL6and LL7.No secondary caries present))))

Hi guysI want to share my description of xrays,please correct me if i am wrong and all additions are welcome!)))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

Hi Lyudmyla,

Thank you so much for uploading these radiographs.))

Your descriptions are really good. Just one addition: the guidelines say that we

have to mention the diagnostic grade of the radiograph(1/2 or 3)

I think the IOPA is grade 3(or 2?? please correct if I am wrong): because the

crowns are not completely visible.

The bitewing is grade 3 too: because the opposing teeth are not in contact. (the

patient has not bitten on the film holder)

Regards,

Smriti
