RADIOGRAPHIC INTERPRETATION STEPS (Figure 3.28) Orientation of Films

Оглавление

 Standard intraoral film positioning and viewing (nondigital films will have the embossed “dot” coming out towards you).

 Decide if the image is maxillary or mandibular.Maxillary: is there a white line formed by the dorsal plate of the alveolar process of the maxilla (see Figure 3.30)? (Remember, typically the only three rooted teeth are in the maxilla.)Mandibular: is the mandibular canal seen?

 Position the image with the crowns “in the mouth” like a Cheshire cat grin (mandibular roots pointing down, maxillary roots pointing up) (Figure 3.29).

 Identify side:For canines and incisors: “shake hands” – image’s right is on your left and image’s left is on your right (see Figure 3.28).For premolars: determine “which way is the nose”; is the rostral aspect of the image toward your right or toward your left (Figure 3.30)?Exception: for any extraoral film, right and left will be opposite as compared to an intraoral film (Figure 3.31).
