Few Notes About Dental Radiologists:
Dental radiologists start out in general dentistry or surgical dentistry before seeking specialization in radiology.
Oral and maxillofacial radiology is a branch of dentistry which concerns diagnostic imaging in the fields of face and dental structures.
Dental imaging accounts for approximately 40 % of all X-ray examinations, profound knowledge of this topic is essential not only for the dentist but also for the clinical radiologist.
Currently, the most frequent imaging techniques are the orthopantomogram (OPG) and single-tooth radiograph, as well as computer tomography (CT) and cone beam CT mainly for implantology (planning or postoperative control) or trauma indications
Early diagnosis and correct classification of a dental trauma, such as dental pulp involvement, prevents from treatment delays or worsening of therapy options and prognosis
