Re: attempting description of x ray [1 Attachment]

Hi lyudmyla,Thanks for your attachment and your description of IOPA.I don't think the radiolucency in the mesiel aspect of LR7 is a cavity.I think it is an artifact.I just want to add the horizontal bone loss associated between 6 and 7 and maybe pockets related to them.Correct me if I am wrong. Thanks & Regards,Padma From: Lyudmyla Huhley <huhley2006@...> " "

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
