Visibility of lamina dura and periodontal space on periapical radiographs and its comparison with cone beam computed tomography

Abstract: Objectives:To retrospectively evaluate the subjective quality of images of cone beam computed tomography and compare with periapical radiographs (PR) to determine whether lamina dura (LD) and periodontal ligament (PDL) space can be detected and reported.Study Design:Sixty scans for anterior and posterior teeth with PR were included and scored on four point subjective scale. Scores assessed using Wilcoxon Signed rank test with the level of statistical significance P < 0.05.Results:Maximum number of ties for LD … Show more

“…After 6 months, this patient had acceptable oral hygiene and good control of periodontitis with no tooth mobility and further gingival recession (Figures 6(a) and 6(b) ). On the basis of literature [ 17 ], lamina dura is a radiographic landmark viewed largely on periapical radiographs. The terminology lamina dura (or alveolus) is applied to the thin layer of dense cortical bone, which lines the roots of sound teeth.…”

“…Radiographically, lamina dura is the radiopacity structure that lines the border of the socket, and the appearance of lamina dura can imply information about teeth health. Moreover, alterations to this structure have been used to indicate the bone healing process and pathological changes in radiographic findings [43]. In the present study, although tooth extraction was performed, this structure still appeared on the day of the operation.…”

“…Although a bitewing x‐ray would have been more accurate for measuring the distance between the tooth/restoration margins and the bone crest, in this study, digital periapical x‐rays were chosen to detect any abnormal changes in the continuity of the lamina dura, periodontal ligament space, or the bone surrounding the restored teeth. This is typically assessed using periapical radiographs 35 . To minimize the radiation dose administered to the patient, only periapical x‐rays were taken during the follow‐up evaluations instead of both bitewing and periapical x‐rays.…”
