The development of specialized panoramic radiograph machine software has spawned the introduction of an innovative and promising dental radiographic examination type: extraoral bite-wings. But does this unconventional type of imaging belong in the bite-wing family? Is there any relationship at all to the conventional bite-wing radiograph?
The purpose of this article is not to make a case for the diagnostic effectiveness of one system over the other; this is best left to further clinical evaluation. Instead, the authors intend to provide an outline of a few key and distinguishing elements of the intraoral bite-wing radiographic examination followed by those of the extraoral panoramic substitute and draw attention to the importance of reimagining the increasingly universal naming convention of this novel radiographic examination, the paradoxical "extraoral bite-wing radiograph", based on the fundamental principles of each of these imaging systems.
The accuracy of clinical and technical terminology in oral radiography is of paramount importance to both the profession and patients, especially when considering emerging technologies.
专业全景放射机软件的发展催生了一种创新且有前途的牙科放射检查类型：口外咬合翼片。但是，这种非传统的成像类型属于咬合翼片家族吗？与传统的咬合翼片放射检查有任何关系吗？
本文的目的不是要证明一种系统比另一种系统更具诊断效果，这最好留待进一步的临床评估。相反，作者旨在提供一个关键和区分的几个要素的口腔咬合翼片放射检查，然后是那些口外全景替代，并提请注意重新想象日益普遍的命名约定的重要性这种新颖的放射检查，矛盾的“口外咬合翼片放射”，基于每个成像系统的基本原则。
口腔放射摄影术中临床和技术术语的准确性对专业人士和患者都至关重要，尤其是在考虑新兴技术时。
