[Diagnosis of dental caries based on intra-oral roentgenograms].
On 238 intra-oral roentgenograms there were assessed carious process, shape, size, extent and depth of defects as well as the possibility of complications in teeth which were not treated. There were assessed 277 defects, out of which 194 in upper teeth and 83 in lower ones. In all the teeth of the maxilla and of the mandible there was found the greatest number of amorphic defects and semilunar contact surfaces. There were also observed a lot of defects in radiciform cementum, thus, often under the gingivae. These are sites difficult for access for clinical examination. That is why radiologic examination is often conclusive in localizing carious process and in accurate diagnosing in the case of pulpitis going on.
