Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Dental radiography has become an indispensable part of routine dental examination with the help of the technological development of radiological devices. However, medical procedures like dental treatment and medical imaging (magnetic resonance imaging-MRI, computed tomography-CT, orthopantomography- OPG, etc.) that require cooperation are usually hard to apply to mentally handicapped (MHP) or uncooperative patients (UCP). Treatments that will be done without radiological examination can be missing or incorrect.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Radiological imaging

Mentally handicapped patients underwent sedation anesthesia with IV Propofol and then tomographic images were obtained with NewTom 5G. Orthopantomographies (OPGs) were obtained by processing the raw images and radiological examination of the patients were performed on OPGs.

Group Type OTHER

Radiological examination

Intervention Type OTHER

During the period of two years, mentally handicapped patients were enrolled in this study. First a radiological examination was performed under sedation anesthesia and then an oral examination was performed when patient underwent general anesthesia for dental treatments. Oral and radiological examinations were compared with each other and also with treatment results to define the necessity of the radiological examination of mentally handicapped patients.
