One of the most subjective areas with regard to interexaminer variations is the dental radiograph. The variations in radiographic interpretation lead to differences in treatment planning decisions. This study compared the endodontic retreatment planning decisions for endodontically treated teeth between 12 general practitioners and 12 endodontic postgraduate students. Utilizing dental radiographs of completed cases, both groups were asked to make treatment choices based on two hypothetical ages of a case: 1 or 3 yr postoperatively. General practitioners chose to initiate treatment at an earlier date and also chose more extensive treatment modalities. The age of the root filling was looked on as more important in treatment planning by the endodontics postgraduates.
在检查者之间存在差异的最主观领域之一是牙科X光片。X光片解读的差异导致治疗计划决策的不同。本研究比较了12名全科医生和12名牙髓病学研究生对已进行牙髓治疗牙齿的根管再治疗计划决策。利用已完成病例的牙科X光片,要求两组根据病例的两个假设年龄做出治疗选择:术后1年或3年。全科医生选择更早开始治疗,并且也选择了更广泛的治疗方式。牙髓病学研究生在治疗计划中认为根充的年龄更为重要。
