OBJECTIVES
The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of the use of digital radiography and report how it was used by Turkish dentists.
METHODS
The survey was based on 383 dentists who were present at the sixteenth International Congress organized by the Turkish Dental Association. A questionnaire which consisted of 19 questions was given to the dentists who participated in the study. Data were assessed according to frequency distribution and the χ(2) test was used to determine the significance of differences between two independent groups.
RESULTS
376 questionnaires were analysed. The mean age of the dentists who participated in the study was 37.14 ± 9.6 years (range: 20-63 years). The distribution of the dentists according to the 7 regions of Turkey were: Marmara 58%, Aegean 13% and Mediterranean 10%, Central Anatolia 8%, Black Sea 7%, Southeastern Anatolia 3%, Eastern Anatolia 1%. 124 dentists (33%) said they did not work with digital radiography. 95 dentists indicated that they did not use digital radiography owing to cost (60%). 252 dentists (67%) said they used digital radiography. 40% of the participants noted that the repetition of periapical radiographs was due to digital radiography. 166 dentists (55.9%) and 79.1% academicians had knowledge about cone beam CT (CBCT).
CONCLUSION
Digital radiography users are increasing in Turkey and levels of knowledge of CBCT and awareness of radiation safety has also increased.
目的
本研究旨在确定数字放射摄影的使用情况，并报告土耳其牙医的使用情况。
方法
该调查基于出席土耳其牙科学会第十六届国际大会的 383 名牙医。向参加研究的牙医发放了一份包含 19 个问题的问卷。根据频率分布评估数据，并使用卡方检验确定两个独立组之间差异的显著性。
结果
分析了 376 份问卷。参与研究的牙医的平均年龄为 37.14 ± 9.6 岁（范围：20-63 岁）。根据土耳其的 7 个地区的牙医分布情况为：马尔马拉海 58%，爱琴海 13%，地中海 10%，中安纳托利亚 8%，黑海 7%，东安纳托利亚 3%，东南安纳托利亚 3%。124 名牙医（33%）表示他们不使用数字放射摄影。95 名牙医表示由于成本原因（60%）不使用数字放射摄影。252 名牙医（67%）表示他们使用数字放射摄影。40%的参与者表示根尖周放射照片的重复是由于数字放射摄影。166 名牙医（55.9%）和 79.1%的学者了解锥形束 CT（CBCT）。
结论
数字放射摄影在土耳其的使用正在增加，对 CBCT 的了解程度和对辐射安全的认识也有所提高。
