Abstract:
Some individuals at risk for a cerebrovascular accident can be identified in the dental office by appropriate review of their panoramic radiographs. Radiographs were evaluated for 304 outpatients, 55 years or older, to check the presence of calcifications associated with artery disease. Three percent of the sample had such opacities.
