Lecture 4: Radiographic Interpretation of Dental Caries ODRP 755 Radiology II Theory & Interpretation Heidi L. Christensen, DDS, MS 1
Dental Caries • A process of decalcification • 50% of calcium and phosphorus in a particular area must be destroyed before decreased density can be seen on radiographs 2
Radiographic Criteria • Description of Depth of Lesion – E 0 = Sound, no caries – E 1 = Caries in the outer 1/2 of enamel – E 2 = Caries into the inner 1/2 of enamel to DEJ – D 1 = Caries through DEJ, into the outer 1/3 of dentin – D 2 = Caries into the middle 1/3 of the dentin – D 3 = Caries into the inner 1/3 of the dentin 3

Occlusal Caries 6
Interproximal Caries • Most difficult to detect clinically • Interproximal caries usually begin just below the contact point 7

Recurrent Caries • • • Caries immediately next to a restoration Inadequate margins or excavation Pulpal necrosis Metallic restorations often hide Clinical examination 21

Root or Cemental Caries 26
Root or Cemental Caries 27
Cervical Burnout • Often mistaken for root caries 28
Cervical Burnout • Caused by – The great density difference between the cervical neck of the tooth and the tissues above and below it – Shape of CE contour – Root configurations – Poor horizontal angulation of the beam 29
Cervical Burnout • Found between CEJ and alveolar crest • Diffuse radiolucency generally viewed on periapical but not on bitewing • Clinical evaluation important – lesion looks BIG, if it is decay, you would be able to find it! 30
Cervical Burnout 31
Cervical Burnout vs. Root Caries 32
Radiation Caries • A result of therapeutic radiation • Caused by xerostomia, a common side effect • Caries begins at cervical region • Extensive decay very quickly • Pre-therapy dental evaluation and treatment is very important 33
Radiation Caries 34
Rampant Caries • • • Children Poor dietary habits Extensive caries Proximal and smooth surface Socio-economic factors 35
Rampant Caries 36
Regressive and Traumatic Alterations of Teeth 37
Regressive Alterations • Attrition • Abrasion • Erosion 38
Attrition • • Physiologic wearing away Incisal, occlusal and interproximal surfaces Part of aging process Bruxism – pathologic attrition 39
Attrition – Radiologic Features • • • Change in normal outline Flat occlusal plane Loss of mamelon Pulp chamber, canal size Hypercementosis 40
Attrition 41
Attrition 42
Attrition 43
Abrasion • • • Non-physiologic wearing away Habits Toothbrush trauma Dental floss injury Occupational hazards 44
Abrasion – Radiologic Features • • Radiolucent defects at the cervical region Well-defined semilunar defects Pulp chambers sclerosed In case of dental floss injury, distal surfaces more involved 45
Abrasion 46
Abrasion 47
Abrasion 48
Erosion • • • Chemical cause No bacteria involved Diet Regurgitation Occupational hazards 49
Erosion - Radiologic Features • • Radiolucent defects Dietary acids – labial surface Regurgitation – mandibular lingual surface Occupational – all surfaces 50
