| Summary: | The spectrum of oral diseases in an individuals may experience oral diseases ranging from localized lesions to systemic disorders which the person may be unaware of. In such circumstances early and accurate diagnosis of oral diseases becomes paramount. Over the history of evolution in medical sciences the diagnosis of various diseases through different modalities has evolved along with the essential signs and symptoms exhibited by patients. Clinical examination of the patient can reveal various patterns or signs that can help establish a provisional diagnosis. Though these patterns can often overlap they are still helpful in the diagnosis. The discovery of X-rays or radiographs holds a special place in the diagnosis of various diseases including those affecting the oral cavity. Various techniques of radiographs such as Intra-oral Periapical Radiograph IOPAR Bitewing Orthopantomogram OPG Cone Beam Computed Tomography CBCT Computed Tomography scans and Magnetic Resonance Imaging MRI can be used in diagnosing oral conditions. Using these radiographs to analyze the patterns created by different lesions in conjunction with a suitable clinical evaluation assists both dental students and practitioners narrow down the differential diagnoses. Therefore this review aims to assist clinicians in diagnosing by recognizing various patterns encountered in both clinical and radiographical settings. |
