Xeoradiography has gained limited use in oral surgery and orthodontics. Its wide exposure latitude, detailed image, and low operating costs recommend its use in general dentistry. In studies on real and simulted hard-tissue lesions, it was found to be slightly superior to conventional radiography in the detection of small lesions. When intraoral plates are marketed and low-KVP techniques are perfected, xeroradiography could assume an important role in dental radiology.
