This document discusses dental caries diagnosis using radiographs. It describes how bitewing and periapical films are used and factors that can affect detection. Stages of caries are defined from incipient to severe based on depth of lesion. Occlusal, root, and recurrent caries diagnosis methods are also outlined. Cervical burnout is distinguished from root caries based on location and appearance on radiographs. Rampant and radiation-induced caries are also briefly mentioned.

self correcting anomalies in the development of occlusion. this ppt includes the anomalies of a child's developing occlusion which get corrected by itself in some time as the development continues. This includes Retrognathic mandible,infantile swallow,anterior open and deep bite,etc. these topics are important in BDS final examination

This report, prepared by the student at the College of Dentistry, Hassan Atheed , in the third phase discusses scientific topics, but it maybe did not be 100% complete.
A radiograph is only one part of the diagnostic process. Usually one does NOT make a diagnosis solely from a radiograph. A diagnosis is made by the clinician once all the diagnostic information has been collected and analyzed collectively. An interpretation or a differential diagnosis is made from the radiograph.
One examines a radiograph and NOT an X-ray. Bear in mind that an X-ray cannot be seen. X-ray is a photon / beam of energy.

Differential diagnosis of periapical radiolucent lesion HagerMohammed12
Differential diagnosis of periapical radiolucent lesion
Periapical radiolucency is the descriptive term for radiographic changes which are most often due to apical periodontitis and radicular cysts, that is, inflammatory bone lesions around the apex of the tooth which develop if bacteria are spread from the oral cavity through a caries-affected tooth with necrotic dental pulp
3. Proximal caries susceptible zone
caries
Approximately 50 % demineralization is required for
radiographic detection of a lesion.
The thickness of the tooth buccolingually masks the
carious lesion when it is small.
The actual depth of penetration of a carious lesion is
deeper clinically than radiographically.
4. Factors affecting caries diagnosis:
Buccolingual thickness of tooth
Two-dimensional film
X-ray beam angle
Exposure factors
24. Occlusal Caries
Must have penetrated into dentin
Diagnosed from clinical exam
Radiographs are not a reliable
diagnostic aid for the detection of
occlusal caries.
25. Occlusal Caries
The apex of the triangle is toward the
outer surface of the tooth and the
base is at the dentino-enamel
juncition.
33. Root caries may be confused with
cervical burnout
Cervical burnout appears as a collar or wedge-shaped radiolucency on the
mesial and distal root surfaces near the CEJ of a tooth.
The tissue density at the cervical region of the tooth is less than the regions
above and below it. (variable penetration of X-ray)
Burn-Out:
*Mainly located at the neck of the tooth (Demarcated above
by enamel cap or restoration and below by the alveolar
bone)
**Usually all teeth are affected esp. smaller premolars.
***it is more obvious when the exposure factors are
increased!
