“…It is noted that panoramic radiographs have a diagnostic sensitivity reaching 86-96% and involves lower patient radiation doses when compared with the full mouth series of periapical radiographs (23). Panoramic radiography also a showed higher percentage of teeth with PAI score of ≥3 in various studies (24). However, it has also been reported that an underestimation of lesions occurred when panoramic radiography was used as a radiographic method (25,26).…”

Objective: This retrospective case-control study aimed to investigate the association between smoking and radiographically diagnosed apical periodontitis using panoramic radiographs and periapical index (PAI) scoring system. Methods: The records of 75 controls and 75 patients from the Department of Oral Diagnosis and Radiology at Marmara University Dental Faculty, Turkey were selected and studied. Inclusion criteria were as follows: patients who were aged >20 years, had at least eight remaining teeth, and agreed to a complete clinical and radiographic examination. The case group comprised patients who had at least one periapical lesion, which was radiographically detectable in a tooth. The control group included patients who had no radiographically defined periapical lesion in any teeth. Results: In this retrospective case-control study, no statistically significant association was observed between smoking and periapical status (p>0.05). In addition, there was no significant association between diabetes mellitus and apical periodontitis in both control and case groups (p>0.05). Conclusion: As a result, no significant association was found among smoking, diabetes mellitus, and the presence of radiographically detected periapical lesions in this study.

“…The results of the present study show that the total percentage of periapically diseased teeth ranged from 4% to 15.6%. Ridao-Sacie et al (15) using the PAI scoring system (17), also reported a significantly higher percentage of periapically diseased teeth with digital panoramic images displayed on glossy paper (14.7%) compared to periapical radiographs (3.1%). These authors scored apical periodontitis more often on paper than on screen, and more often on screen than in periapical radiographs.…”

“…All participants underwent a full-mouth radiographic survey consisting of 14 periapical radiographs and a panoramic radiography. The panoramic radiographs and the periapical radiographs were taken as described previously (15) From the full-mouth radiographic survey, as well as from the panoramic radiography, all teeth were recorded according to the FDI nomenclature and the periapical status on all appraised teeth was assessed as described previously by Chugal et al (16). The method of viewing the periapical radiographs was standardized as described previously (17).…”

Aim: To compare the use of film-based periapical radiographs and digital panoramic images displayed on monitor and glossy paper in the assessment of the periapical status of the teeth. Methodology: A total of 86 subjects were examined. All participants underwent a full-mouth radiographic survey (14 periapical radiographs) and a digital panoramic radiography. The periapical status of all appraised teeth was assessed. Results: Periapical radiographs allowed the assessment of the periapical status of a significantly higher percentage of teeth (87.4%) Digital radiography had a significantly reduced potential to allow assessment of the periapical status (p<0.01). Only 58.0% and 34.3% of teeth could be appraised using digital panoramic images displayed on monitor and glossy paper respectively (p<0.01). The total percentage of teeth with periapical pathosis was four-fold higher when assessed with digital panoramic images displayed on glossy paper compared with periapical radiographs (p<0.01). Conclusions: Periapical radiographs allowed the assessment of a significantly higher percentage of teeth when comparing to digital radiography, which had a significantly lower potency in the assessment of periapical status of the teeth. Digital panoramic images displayed on a monitor resulted in a significantly higher percentage of appraised teeth compared to digital images displayed on glossy paper. Apical periodontitis was scored more often on paper than on screen, and more often on screen than in periapical radiographs.

Resumen. Introducción: las lesiones periapicales resultan un hallazgo importante en la práctica endodóncica por la información que aportan al diagnóstico y al plan de tratamiento. El objetivo de esta investigación fue describir los hallazgos radiográficos encontrados de lesiones periapicales en las historias clínicas de pacientes tratados endodónticamente. Métodos: estudio descriptivo en el que se midió tamaño, localización, ensanchamiento del ligamento periodontal, lámina dura y pérdida ósea de las lesiones apicales y los dientes tratados. Se incluyeron 576 radiografías obtenidas entre [2003][2004][2005][2006][2007], teniendo en cuenta criterios de selección definidos. Se diseñó un formato y las radiografías fueron estandarizadas a través de un lector digital calibrado. Se realizó análisis estadístico en el programa STATA. Resultados: el promedio de edad fue 32,1 ± 14,6 años; las radiografías pertenecían a pacientes femeninas en 59,4% y masculinos en 40,6%; el 38% presentó lesiones grandes (> 7 mm); la pérdida ósea fue detectable en un 18,2%. Finalmente, la lámina dura tuvo mayor continuidad en el rango de 8 a 10 milímetros con 37,5%. Conclusiones: los resultados sugieren que las características de las lesiones periapicales fueron consistentes con otros hallazgos descritos en la literatura. Es necesario, además de las radiografías, tener en cuenta otros hallazgos para un correcto diagnóstico y tratamiento.Palabras clave: endodoncia, periodontitis apical, epidemiología, radiografía dental. Radiographic analysis of periapical lesions in patients undergoing root canal treatmentAbstract. Introduction: periapical lesions are an important finding in endodontic practice because of the information they provide for the diagnosis and treatment plan. The aim of this research was to describe the radiographic findings of periapical lesions in the clinical histories of patients treated endodontically. Methods: this descriptive study measured size, location, enlargement of the periodontal ligament, lamina dura, and bone loss of apical lesions and treated teeth. The study included 576 xrays obtained between 2003 and 2007, taking defined selection criteria into account. A format was designed and the x-rays were standardized using a calibrated digital reader. Statistical analysis was performed using the STATA program. Results: the average age was 32.1 ± 14.6 years. The x-rays related to female patients in 59.4% of cases and males in 40.6% of cases; 38% presented large lesions (> 7 mm). Bone loss was detectable in 18.2% of cases. Finally, the lamina dura had greatest continuity in the range of 8 to 10 mm with 37.5%. Conclusions: the results suggest that the characteristics of the periapical lesions were consistent with other findings described in the literature. As well as the x-rays, other findings must be taken into account for correct diagnosis and treatment.Keywords: endodontics, apical periodontitis, epidemiology, dental radiography.
