Abstract

Results of the panoramic examination of dentists participating in the health evaluation program of the ADA annual sessions held at Las Vegas (1976), Miami Beach (1977), and Anaheim (1978) were reported and compared as accurately as possible with the results of the panoramic examinations of dentists taking part in the health evaluation programs of the ADA annual sessions in 1964, 1966, and 1968. The panoramic radiograph continues to serve as a diagnostic aid in dental health evaluation programs. Only general impressions may be drawn from surveys of this nature for various reasons: the inability to follow up each case with a clinical examination; the lack of correlation of findings between examiners; and the use of different criteria each year. Generally, dentists examined in the health evaluation programs in 1976, 1977, and 1978 were in good dental health.
