Dental findings:
Severe periodontal bone loss with periapical lesion on 37. Prognosis of the tooth is poor.
Moderate generalised chronic periodontitis, periodontal evaluation is needed. The measurements included in the report are to provide an approximate idea about the bone volume in the suggested implant sites.
A small accessory canal is passing through the root of 47, this is a rare variation of anatomy, no further evaluation needed. The bone in the area of 46 (LR6) is in intermediate stages of healing.
The following are selected images from the volume illustrating major findings
