Abstract
In the comparison of radiographical findings (flattening, irregular surface and osteophyte formation) between lateral tomography and Orthopantomography in thirty-one female patients with craniomandibular disorders, a 76% similarity was found. A trend in the findings was seen: with an increase in radiographical findings visible in the tomograms there is a decrease in the amount of condylar asymmetry visible in the Orthopantomograms and a decrease in the age of the patients.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
