The jaws of 368 edentulous patients are evaluated radiographically and the findings presented. Patients were selected at random from those attending the Oral Diagnostic Clinic of the Dental School of the University of Athens. Pathological findings consisting of residual roots, impacted teeth, radiopaque and radiolucent areas, foreign bodies, and soft tissue calcification were found in 37.0 percent of the patients examined. These conditions were not identifiable from the history or the clinical examination of the patients; 47 patients had been denture wearers for a period of 1 to 5 years. Analysis of the type, incidence, and location of the pathological conditions found in this study stresses the necessity of radiographic examination of the jaws of all edentulous patients prior to construction of complete dentures.
对368名无牙颌患者的颌骨进行了影像学评估，并展示了评估结果。这些患者是从雅典大学牙科学院口腔诊断诊所的就诊者中随机挑选出来的。在37.0%的受检患者中发现了包括残根、阻生牙、不透射线和透射射线区域、异物以及软组织钙化在内的病理表现。这些情况无法通过患者的病史或临床检查识别出来；47名患者佩戴假牙已有1至5年。对本研究中发现的病理状况的类型、发生率和位置进行分析，强调了在制作全口义齿之前对所有无牙颌患者的颌骨进行影像学检查的必要性。
