    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Lateral orthodontic cephalometric head films revealed significant abnormalities in 3.5% of patients. Dentists should examine these X-rays for non-dental pathologies, aiding physician diagnosis.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Orthodontics
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Lateral orthodontic cephalometric head films are standard diagnostic tools.
    • These films can reveal more than just dental structures.
    • Identifying non-dental findings is crucial for comprehensive patient care.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To determine the prevalence of non-dental abnormalities on lateral orthodontic cephalometric head films.
    • To highlight the importance of evaluating these films for potential pathoses.
    • To inform orthodontists about the significance of reporting nondental findings to physicians.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of 513 consecutive lateral head films from a private practice.
    • Radiological assessment at Children's Hospital, Los Angeles.

  • Classification of films based on the presence of abnormalities or pathologies.

    • Main Results:

    • 3.5% (18 out of 513) of films showed abnormalities or pathologies.
    • Seven additional findings, though normal, were noted as unusual for lateral head films.
    • The study identified a range of significant pathoses.

    Conclusions:

    • Lateral orthodontic cephalometric radiography can detect important non-dental abnormalities.
    • Orthodontists should be vigilant in identifying and reporting these nondental findings.
    • Radiographic interpretation should extend beyond dental structures to aid physician diagnosis.
