[Standard radiography of the mandibular condyle in the dental office. The modified Parma and the Zimmer trans-orbital production technic using a retro-alveolar radiologic unit].
Trauma to the condylar area is rather frequent and the stomatologist should be capable of performing a standard radiographic exploration. Two incidences performed in the stomatologist's office using a dental tube appear to be essential. The modified Parma and the transorbitary Zimmer incidences are needed for lateral and anteroposterior views respectively. The equipment required for these views are described together with several examples.
