Description
Is it ever appropriate to diagnose and treat oral and dental problems without knowing the full extent of the problem? With more than
50% of anatomical structures and associated pathologies located below the gingivae and unseen to the eye, that’s the reality without
the use of high-quality, accurately interpreted radiographs. Atlas of Dental Radiography in Dogs and Cats presents hundreds of actual
radiographic images, which are clearly labeled to facilitate accurate identification of normal and abnormal features. This valuable
new atlas shows you exactly how to correlate common dental conditions with radiographic signs. Radiographs are also compared side by
side with actual anatomical photographs to confirm surface landmarks visible on the radiographs. Correct positioning techniques for
producing diagnostic radiographs as well as helpful tips and pitfalls when obtaining quality radiographs are logically presented. This
approach helps you produce consistently high-quality radiographs, sharpen your interpretive skills, and confidently treat a wide range
of dental problems.
