Comparison of orthopantomogram and lateral cephalogram for mandibular measurements
Aim: The aim of the present study is to clarify the possible application of orthopantomogram (OPG) for evaluating craniofacial specifications such as angular and linear measurements of the mandible by comparing with lateral cephalogram.

Risk of root damage after using lateral cephalogram and intraoral scan for guided insertion of palatal miniscrews [PDF]
Background Guided insertion of palatal miniscrews using a lateral cephalogram instead of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) significantly reduces the radiation level for the patient. Till now no data are available on the risk of hitting the incisors in
