Film is the top choice for a full-mouth radiographic series. While cost and computer dependency are no longer major obstacles to using filmless radiography (FR), many clinicians still are reluctant to adopt the newer method because they are concerned about its diagnostic efficacy. Those concerns are not borne out in recent dental literature. FR's diagnostic capabilities and beneficial properties, which include decreased patient radiation exposure and nominal time needed to view an X-ray image, may have helped it surpass film as the modality of choice for some aspects of dental radiography, particularly procedures requiring selective periapical radiographic analysis.
胶片是全口放射影像系列的首选。虽然成本和对计算机的依赖已不再是使用无胶片放射成像（FR）的主要障碍，但许多临床医生仍不愿采用这种更新的方法，因为他们担心其诊断效果。近期的牙科文献并未证实这些担忧。FR的诊断能力和有益特性，包括减少患者的辐射暴露以及查看X线图像所需的最短时间，可能有助于它在牙科放射成像的某些方面超越胶片，成为首选方式，尤其是在需要进行选择性根尖周放射影像分析的程序中。
