Relative-Implant Anatomy in Panoramic and CBCT Radiographs: Knowledge and Attitude of Dental Students

Abstract

Popularity of dental implants in rehabilitation of partial and completely edentulous patients, has increased over the last few years, in concurrence with increased demands of advanced technology and trained dentists. Comprehensive patient care and efficient implant planning relies on the use of appropriate dental radiographs and the capability to interpret radiographic findings. Successful implants placement requires recognition of adjacent structures thus permitting sufficient bone interface between implant fixtures and vital structures [1,2].
