The orthopantomogram is a very useful additional
examination in dentistry, as a tool for the diagnosis and
treatment plan, with medical-legal importance, assessing
the health status of the dento-maxillary apparatus. As a
long-time, non-degradable document, it shows the evolution
of the therapy applied in various dental specialities,
permitting checking of the prognosis of the detected disease.
The present study aims at investigating the usability
of this dental radiographic examination in the actual
Romanian dental practice, based on an original questionnaire
completed by 558 dentists, which gives a response
rate of 3.9%. The collected data were loaded electronically
and processed statistically using Excel and SPSS,
the threshold limit of statistical significance used being
p> 0.05. |
