Abstract
A dry maxillozygoma was radiographed with a Panex panoramic unit with lead foil and wires on the anatomic landmarks. The medial border of the maxillary sinus on the pantomogram is seen at the angle of the anterior and medial walls. The lateral border of the maxillary sinus consists of the maximum posterior convexity of the posterior wall. Anterior, posterior, and medial walls are recognized as anatomic landmarks only when radiopaque materials are attached to individual walls. Most of the anterior and posterior walls of the maxillary sinus are superimposed upon the medial wall in the pantomogram. The anterior wall occupies the medial two thirds of the maxillary sinus, and the posterior wall occupies the lateral third of the maxillary sinus. Anterior, posterior, and medial walls do not appear as anatomic landmarks on the pantomogram.
