Dental Radiology: Understanding
the X-ray Image
From the Publisher:
Dental Radiology provides a broad overview of the normal and abnormal
appearance of teeth and jaws on x-ray images. Abnormalities are grouped
according to their location or their main presenting feature. Recognition of
abnormalities, and interpretation of their radiographic appearance is assisted
by a clear review of normal appearances and the production of the standard x-ray
views used in dentistry.
