Radiographic Study of the Area-Volume Relationship in Interproximal Cavities

Abstract

SYNOPSIS IN INTERLINGUA

UN STUDIO RADTOCRAPMC DEL RELATION INTER AREA E VOLUMINE IN CAVITATES INTER-PROXIMAL.—Le mentionate relation esseva studiate in extrahite dentes human a base de 54 cavitates inter-proximal con le utilisation de un standardisate e reprodacibite technica radiographic. Areas esseva determinate ab radiographias. Volumines esseva determinate per pesar replenationes de guttapercha removite ab cavitates excavate. Le relationes quantitative inter area e volumine variava in differente typos morphologic de dente. Esseva calculate como equation de regression Y = 4,30 X — 1,63 ubi Y = volumine e X = area. Esseva trovate un alte coefficiente de correlation positive (r = 0,91) pro area e volumine. Le methodo se recommenda pro un meliorate studio in vivo del progresso de carie inter examines.
