Digital versus conventional radiography for determination of primary incisor length
(2009-04-01)
Aim: This in vitro study evaluated the accuracy of primary incisor lengths determined by digital and conventional radiography compared to the actual tooth length. Methods: Twenty extracted primary maxillary incisors were ...
Comparative analysis of human and bovine teeth: Radiographic density
(2008-12-01)
Since bovine teeth have been used as substitutes for human teeth in in vitro dental studies, the aim of this study was to compare the radiographic density of bovine teeth with that of human teeth to evaluate their usability ...
Bone mineral density on conventional and digitized images under different parameters of digitization and storage
(2010-10-21)
Aim: To assess the bone mineral density on conventional and digitized images, comparing whether different parameters of digitization and storage change these values. Methods: Twenty radiographs were taken from five partially ...
Patient comfort in periapical examination using digital receptors
(British Inst Radiology, 2009-10-01)
Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare digital and conventional radiography with regard to patient comfort during periapical radiographic examination.Methods: 300 patients were submitted to a simulation of a ...
Assessment of manipulation accuracy of digitized occlusal radiographic images--sub and over exposure.
(2009-12-01)
The aim of this study was to evaluate whether digitized images obtained from occlusal radiographs taken with low or over dose of radiation could be improved with the aid of computer software for digital treatment. Thirteen ...
Detection of cavitated approximal surfaces using cone beam CT and intraoral receptors
(2013-01-01)
Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare cone beam CT (CBCT) in a small field of view (FOV) with a solid-state sensor and a photostimulable phosphor plate system for detection of cavitated approximal surfaces. ...
Accuracy of zoomed digital image in the detection of periodontal bone defect: in vitro study
(British Inst Radiology, 2006-05-01)
Objectives: (1) To evaluate the intraobserver agreement related to image interpretation and (2) to compare the accuracy of 100%, 200% and 400% zoomed digital images in the detection of simulated periodontal bone defects.Methods: ...
Comparison between embossed digital imaging and unprocessed film-based radiography in detecting periodontal bone defects: an in vitro study
(Springer, 2012-09-01)
Our aim was to compare bone-loss measurements between embossed digital radiographic imaging and unprocessed film-based radiography.Forty two-wall bone defects were made in the proximal region of the premolar in dry pig ...
Effect of induced diabetes mellitus on alveolar bone loss after 30 days of ligature-induced periodontal disease
(2009-04-01)
Several studies have shown that diabetics are more susceptible to the development of severe periodontal disease. Currently, the use of animal models can be considered a feasible alternative in radiographic assessments of ...
