Radiographic examination in pediatric dentistry. A review.
The radiographic examination is an essential part of the diagnosis of dental disease. Radiographs of children reveal many conditions that cannot be discovered by any other method. They help the practitioner to make an early diagnosis of carious lesions and development of eruption problems, and they enable him or her to confirm and evaluate a pathology diagnosed clinically. Moreover, the radiographic examination enables the clinician to establish a therapeutic decision.
