Periodontal examination involves evaluation of soft and hard tissue parameters to gauge gingival inflammatory changes and quantify attachment loss. Conventional radiographs are vital components of this process and can be used to assess the presence of calculus and other local factors to establish a diagnosis, prognosis, and periodontal treatment plan. The 2-dimensional nature of these images limits their utility. The advent of high-resolution cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) offers 3-dimensional images that might overcome these limitations. We discuss the use of conventional radiographic techniques as well as CBCT for evaluating, diagnosing, and treatment planning patients presenting for periodontal and/or implant therapy.
牙周检查包括评估软组织和硬组织参数,以判断牙龈的炎症变化并量化附着丧失。传统的口腔X光片是这一过程的重要组成部分,可用于评估牙结石及其他局部因素的存在情况,从而确立诊断、判断预后并制定牙周治疗计划。这些图像的二维特性限制了它们的实用性。高分辨率锥形束计算机断层扫描(CBCT)的出现提供了三维图像,可能会克服这些限制。我们讨论了传统放射技术以及CBCT在评估、诊断和为接受牙周治疗和/或种植治疗的患者制定治疗计划方面的应用。
