The document discusses various diagnostic techniques used in orthodontics including diagnostic setup, panoramic radiography, and xeroradiography. It provides details on:
- Diagnostic setup which involves separating teeth on models and repositioning them to visualize potential occlusion after treatment.
- Panoramic radiography which produces a single image of the jaws and surrounding structures, outlining advantages like broad coverage and lower radiation dose.
- Xeroradiography which records images electrostatically on a plate rather than using film, providing edge enhancement but higher radiation exposure compared to conventional films.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

1. Seminar on,
Diagnostic Set up
Panoramic Radiography
Xeroradiography
Clark’s technique
www.indiandentalacademy.com
2. DIAGNOSTIC SET UP
Practical aid in treatment planning and
diagnosis.
Proposed by H.D. Kingsley.
It’s a procedure in which teeth are removed
and replaced in positions they will occupy after
experiencing mesial migration in an orthodontic
environment.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
3. Advantages –
1. To determine and visualise the resultant
occlusion before the teeth have been extracted
2. Possible to change the treatment plan on the
model by replacing some and removing other
teeth so that one can thoroughly examine all
possible occlusions.
3. Mainly useful in asymmetric extraction and
combined surgical orthodontic treatment.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
4. 4. Tooth size – arch length discrepancies can be
visualised by means of set up.
5. Also a step in construction of tooth positioner.
6. Patient can be motivated .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
5. Procedure
A set of well trimmed models made of deep
impressions of teeth and soft tissues.
Lines are drawn through buccal groove on the
mandibular first molars on to the soft tissue.
This act as a reference point.
A . 004 inch ribbon saw blade is used to cut
through the contact areas and separate teeth.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
11. The lower first permanent molars are replaced to a new
position they will occupy by mesial migration.
Deciding lower first molar position is the most important
decision in constructing the set up.
Factors influencing position of first molar set up
are –
– Size of the teeth
– Presence or absence of tooth crowding mesial to anchor
molars.
– Procumbency of anterior teeth.
– Missing teeth
– Age of the patient
– Treatment plan
– Tooth size related to jaw size.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
12. After all the above points have been considered, the
orthodontist must anticipate the behaviour of anchor
molar during treatment.
It again depends on –
– Technique employed
– The time requirement
– Orthodontist’s ability
– Patient’s cooperation
At this stage by studying the set up one can analyse that-
If anterior teeth – too far forward – Extraction – If
already extracted – more extraction.
If anterior teeth – lingual – Eliminate planned
extraction.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
13. Maxillary teeth are arranged according to mandibular
teeth to obtain best possible occlusion.
In most cases, same no. and type of teeth are removed
from maxillary arch as mandibular arch.
Exception –
– Badly broken down teeth
– Congenitally missing or deformed teeth.
– Single tooth extraction in lower arch

14. ‘A Simplified wax set up technique’
by R.W. Knierim JCO- 1975
According to his procedure –
Plaster is filled to about 4 mm over gingival margin of
impression.
As the plaster sets rough grooves are made in near set
plaster to depth of 2mm.
When plaster is set it is removed and teeth are
numbered. www.indiandentalacademy.com
15. Teeth are then separated using discs on a lathe to
slice root area, most teeth will now snap apart.
Root areas are then trimmed.
The impression are saved and kept moist.

16. The trimmed dies are then reinserted in air dried alginate
impression
www.indiandentalacademy.com
17. Melted wax is then poured in impression holding the
dies, it should flow well in grooves.
.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
18. Similar grooves are then placed in surface of wax
as it hardens
Plaster is poured over wax surface to make base for model.

19. ‘A simplified Diagnostic set up technique.’ by Dr.
Barry N. Resnick; 1979 JCO
According to his procedure –
The plaster is poured in impression only to the extent of
clinical crown.
Soft wax of 5 mm thickness is poured over crown dies.
Remainder of impression is poured with plaster and
allowed to set.
After separation from impression, the model consists of
two plaster section connected by wax.
Teeth are marked and can be repositioned in desired way

25. Panoramic Radiography
Also called as Ortho pantomograph (OPG)
Rotational Radiography.
It is a radiographic technique for producing
single image of facial structures that includes
both maxillary and mandibular arches and
their supporting structures.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
26. Advantages-
1. Broad anatomic coverage
2. Simple procedure
3. Better tolerated by pts with gagging problems
4. Low radiation dose
5. Convenience of the examination.
6. Useful in pts who are unable to open their mouth
7. Full mouth IOPA – 15 mins and OPG – 3-4
mins.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
27. Disadvantages
1. Magnification, Geometric distortion and overlapped
images.
2. Resolution of fine anatomic details of peri-apical area
and periodontal structures is less.
3. Poor image is obtained when sharp inclination of
anterior teeth towards labial or lingual side.
4. The spinal cord superimpose on anterior region.
5. Common to have overlapped teeth images ,
particularly in premolar area.
6. Artifacts are common and may easily be
misinterpreted.
7. Expensive
www.indiandentalacademy.com
28. Indications
1. To assess pattern and amount of root resorption of
deciduous teeth.
2. Useful in mixed dentition period to study the status of
unerupted teeth.
3. Presence or absence of permanent teeth: their size,
shape, position and relative state of development.
4. To view ankylosed and impacted teeth.
5. To diagnose presence of supernumerary teeth or
congenital absence of teeth.
6. To study the character of alveolar bone and
immediate lamina dura and periodontal membrane.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
29. 7. To study morphology and angulations of roots of
permanent teeth.
8. To study the path of eruption of teeth.
9. To diagnose fractures or pathologies of jaw.
10. To diagnose caries, periapical infections root
fractures etc.
11. Useful aid in serial extraction to study status of
eruption of teeth.
12. Can assess TMJ and Sinuses.
13. Assess shape, size and symmetry of condyles.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
30. To interpret OPG competently one
must have a thorough understanding
of the following :
1. Principles of Panoramic image formation.
2. Techniques for Patient positioning with head
alignment and their rationale.
3. Radiographic appearance of normal anatomic
structures.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
31. Principles of Panoramic image formation
First described by Numata and independently by
Paatero in late 1940s.
Movement of the film and objects about 2 fixed
centers of rotation.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
32. Movement of film and X- ray source about one
fixed center of rotation.
While disc 2 moves, the film on this disc rotates past the
slit.
It is critical that speed of the film passing the collimator
slit is maintained equal to the speed at which x-ray beam
sweeps through the object of interest.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
34. Focal Trough
It’s a 3-D curved zone or image layer in which
structures are reasonably well defined on OPG.
The images seen on OPG consists largely of anatomic
structures located within the focal trough.
Objects out of focal trough are blurred
magnified/ reduced or distorted.
The shape of focal trough varies
with brands of machines used.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
35. Movement of the film and x-ray source
about the shifting center of rotation.
Structures near the film will be sharply imaged.
Structures which are near x-ray source get magnified
and distorted and resultant image is not discrete.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
36. Ring at center
of FT.
Ring 5mm
anterior to FT
Ring 5 mm
posterior to FT
www.indiandentalacademy.com
37. Patient positioning and Head alignment.
Prepration of Patients.
– Removal of earrings or any other metallic objects in head and
neck region.
– Instruct patients to remain still.
– Drape with lead apron.
Patient Positioning
– Place the pt so that dental arches are located in middle of focal
trough.
– A-P positioning – by biting at bite block.
– Proper mid sagittal plane –proper head positioning –
cephalostat.
– Occlusal plane and chin must be properly positioned – FH plane
parallel with floor..
– Back and spine be erect with neck extended.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
40. If anterior teeth are located behind the FT
- Blurred
- Wide anterior teeth
If anterior teeth are located infront of the FT
-Blurred
-Narrow anterior teeth
www.indiandentalacademy.com
42. If skull tipped too far backward
Position the skull according to FH plane and check for
occlusal plane www.indiandentalacademy.com
43. If skull tipped too far forward
Position the skull according to FH plane and check for
occlusal plane www.indiandentalacademy.com
44. Deviation in mid sagittal plane
Asymmetric image
www.indiandentalacademy.com
45. Positioning in mixed dentition stage
•The tooth buds should be in FT
•If additional supernumerary teeth
or impacted teeth has to be shown the
pt must be positioned with occlusal
plane steeply dorsally
www.indiandentalacademy.com
46. Positioning of the Tongue
Pt should press tongue against palate
www.indiandentalacademy.com
47. Radiation dose reduction
By using rare-earth intensifying screens.
Reduce the output by using filters infront of x-ray tube.
Eg. Lanex screens.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
49. The four Diagnostic regions in OPG
Dentoalveolar region
Maxillary region
Mandibular region
TMJ,including retromaxillary
and cervical regionwww.indiandentalacademy.com
52. Dentoalveolar region
• Shape and angulation of roots.
• Alveolar bone and periodontium
• Shows gentle curve of occlusal plane
• Missing 3rd
molars and
• Presence of metallic restorations.www.indiandentalacademy.com
56. Xeroradiography
Xeroradiography is the recording of
radiologic images by a photoelectric process
rather than the photochemical one used in
conventional radiography.
An electrostatic image of object is formed on a
‘ Xeroplate’ , a metallic plate
coated with Selenium.
An electrostatic image is printed on a paper in
such a manner that xeroradiograph is obtained.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
57. Advantages
Pronounced edge enhancement
A choice of positive and negative display
Good detail
Wide exposure latitude
No need of silver halide coated films.
Disadvantages
High radiation exposure
www.indiandentalacademy.com
58. Types of Xeroradiographic systems
Two types –
1. The Medical 125 system
– Used since 1970s.
– Used manly in Mammography and general
radiography.
– Also been used for cephalometric
radiography and tomography of TMJ
1. The Dental 110 system
Designed for dental Xeroradiographs
www.indiandentalacademy.com
59. Medical Xeroradiography
Conventional X-ray source is needed.
Image is recorded in Selenium coated plate.
Before use, selenium photoreceptors which are
stored in a unit called conditioner are given a
uniform electrostatic charge
www.indiandentalacademy.com
60. Processing of Xeroplate before exposure
Plate is subjected to Relaxation
process.
Eliminates old images and
artefacts from
surface.
Plates are then electrostatically
charged and inserted to cassette.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
61. Exposure of Xeroplate
Latent image
Latent image is converted to visible image by
process called Development, in unit called
Processor
www.indiandentalacademy.com
63. Positive Image
When a positive voltage is applied to back of of the
photoreceptor – negative toner particles get attracted to
the surface so, highly charged areas receive more
toner particles than discharged areas.
This results in positive image where
darkest areas corresponds to most
dense parts of anatomy.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
64. When a negative voltage is applied to back of of the
photoreceptor – positive toner particles get attracted to the
discharged areas .
This results in negative image where darkest areas
corresponds to least dense parts of anatomy and dense
objects appear white.
Negative image
www.indiandentalacademy.com
65. Dental xeroradiography
Dental 110 xeroradiogrphic unit system is similar to
medical 125 system in concept but its design is
physically different.
The image receptor plates are the size no. 1 and no. 2
films and fit well in oral cavity.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
68. Radiologic exposure conditions and resultant skin doses
in application of Xeroradiography to Orthodontic
diagnosis. AJO-DO, 1980 by Akihiko Nakasima (Japan )
Minimum xeroradiologic exposure conditions for Skull
projections, Schuller’s and TMJ projections and Hand
projections were established by 13 examiners and
relation b/w image production and radiation dose was
discussed in comparison with conventional film
techniques.
The advantages were finer and clearer images due to
edge effect and wider latitude.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
69. Landmarks on cephlaogram such as Sella, ANS,Basion,
etc were more clear and exactly set.
Outline of condylar process and articular fossa, the
trabecular pattern of mandible and interdental crestal
bone edges were more clear and distinct.
The main hazard was unavoidable larger skin radiation
dose . It was 2.4 to 16.2 times larger than conventional
film techniques.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
70. A cephalometric appraisal of Xeroradiography
by Chate – AJO-DO 1980
This study involved identification by four observers of
16 cephalometric landmarks on 12 xeroradiographs &
on 12 radiographs, on 2 separate occasions.
The conclusion was that neither technique provided a
significant intraobserver differences. However, for 8 of
32 variables xeroradiography produced a significant
reduction in intraobserver error in comparison to
radiography.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
72. Localization technique
Two methods are used in dentistry to obtain
3-D information –
1. To employ two films projected at right angle
to each other.
2. Tube shift/cone shift principle or Clark’s
technique or buccal object rule or SLOB rule.
Mainly used in Orthodontia to locate position
of impacted canine.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
73. Clark’s technique
C.A Clark described it in 1910.
Its based on Parallax principle in physics.
In this , 2 periapical films are taken, first is
taken as standard orthoradial projection, while
second employs a vertical or horizontal change
in central ray projection.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
74. The apparent movement of the object in this
radiograph will provide clue to its exact
location.
According to rule of thumb objects which
moves with central ray movement are actually
behind the reference object.
Its basis of SLOB rule, that is Same side
Lingual Opposite side Buccal

98. Treatment priority index by Grainger
(1967)
The precursor of the TPI was the Malocclusion Severity
Estimate (MSE) developed by Grainger at the
Burlington Orthodontic Research Center.4 in 1960-61
Unlike the TPI, the MSE score was that of the
syndrome with the largest value, regardless of the scores
of the other syndromes.
In the MSE the absence of occlusal disorders was not
scored as zero.
The TPI also differed from the MSE by deleting
potential tooth displacement (mixed-dentition space
analysis) and by rating distoclusion and mesioclusion
equally.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
99. Treatment priority index by Grainger (1967)
Malocclusion types –
Crowding /Malalignment problems
– Tooth displacement
– Score 0 (ideal)
– Score 1 – 5 (moderate)

Anteroposterior problems
– Overjet 6 mm or more
– Lower overjet 1mm or more
Vertical problems
– Open bite 2mm or more
– Over bite 6mm or more
Transverse problems
– Lingual crossbite 2 or more teeth

and alignment.
2. Aesthetic component – Derived from comparison of
dental appearance to standard photographs.
IOTN is usually calculated by direct examination, but
dental health component can be studied by dental
casts.

110. Peer assessment rating Index (PAR index)
Index of orthodontic treatment outcome
Developed by 10 experienced British orthodontists.
Its developed mainly to assess effectiveness of
Orthodontic treatment .
Assigns scores to different occlusal traits.
Study models used.
A scoring system was developed and a ruler designed
to allow analysis of a set of study casts in 2 minutes.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
111. 5 components- Weighting
1. Upper & lower anterior segment - 1
2. Left and right buccal segments - 1
3. Over jet - 6
4. Overbite - 2
5. Centerlines - 4
Individual scores are summed to get a final score..
Index is applied to both the start and end of treatment
study casts, and change in total score reflects the success
of treatment.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
112. Change expressed as:
1. Reduction in weighted PAR score : 22 point
reduction – Greatly improved
2. % reduction in weighted PAR score:
< 30% reduction – worse/ no better
> 30% reduction – Improved.
Indicator of clinical performance.
Can be insensitive and misjudge individual patient’s
needs.
Limitations of PAR
1. Generic weightings of Over jet and overbite.
2. Sensitive to malocclusion with high over jet.
3. Overbite low weighting.
4. Zero weighting for displacements.

114. TheValidation of PAR for Malocclusion severity
and Treatment Difficulty
De Guzman,bahiraei, Vig, Weyant and O’Brien – AJO-DO 1995
11 American Orthodontists examined a sample of 200
sets of study casts and rated them for malocclusion
severity and perceived treatment difficulty.
The results of this study made it possible to derive a set
of weightings for the PAR index that would represent
groupings of malocclusion severity and treatment
difficulty, according to perceptions of panel of
Orthodontists.

121. Goslon yardstick :A new system of assessing
dental arch relationships in childeren with UCLP – Michael
Mars, Dennis A. Plint : 1987 A cleft Palate journal
The Goslon ( Great Ormond Street, London and Oslo)
Yardstick is a clinical tool that allows categorization of
the dental relationships in the late mixed and or early
permanent dentition in to 5 discrete categories.
Objective : 1. To categorize malocclusions in patients
with UCLP to represent severity of malocclusion and the
difficulty of correcting it.
2. To compare long term results of different approaches
to the early treatment of children with UCLP.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
122. Development of Yardstick – Clinical features
considered most important in characterizing
malocclusion in children with UCLP are –
1. A- P arch relationship –Class III incisor relationship>
class II div I
2. Vertical labial segment relationship – Open bite>
Reduced overbite > deep overbite.
3. Transverse relationship – Canine crossbites > molar
crossbites.
To test the application of these subjective criteria
study models of 30 cases were taken.
These models were ranked by 4 orthodontists and
separated in 5 groups , which then formed basis for
yardstick.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
128. Group 1 – excellent
Group 2 – good
Group 3 – fair
Group 4 – poor
Group 5 – very poor
Group 1 or 2 - simple orthodontic treatment/ no
treatment
Group 3 – complex orthodontic treatment
Group 4 – limit of orthodontic treatment without
orthognathic surgery
Group 5 – Orthognathic surgery
