Abstract :
Dental radiography is the art of producing an image or picture for intra-oral or extra-oral structures on a
dental film using x-rays. An ideal radiograph should be capable of providing all the necessary information
required to achieve a correct diagnosis. Furthermore, a good radiograph not only helps in making a proper
diagnosis, but it also aids in adequate treatment planning. Hence, a radiologist must be aware of the various
characteristics of an ideal radiograph and the various factors governing them to achieve a proper diagnosis.
