Synopsis

This work systematically presents the theory and practice of contemporary dental radiography, including new digital techniques. Its organization parallels the structure of most courses, introducing technique, procedures, film processing and characteristics, and radiation basics before interpretation. This third edition contains two additional chapters: one on the new modality of digital radiography, the other on pre-surgical implant imaging and the advantages and disadvantages of the various techniques. The authors particularly emphasize safety issues, such as radiation hygiene and ionizing radiation, and clarify the techniques and interpretive strategies with over 400 photographs and diagrams.
