Abstract

More than 50 years have passed since dental education and oral radiology was introduced in the first dental school of Thailand. Since then, the number of dental schools has reached seven. Six years of undergraduate education are slightly different in their management. Radiographic examination of patients in dental schools and dental clinics or hospitals is similar. A conventional radiographic machine is used in approximately 70% of all clinics. A few intraoral direct digital imaging radiographs are used. Non extraoral direct digital imaging radiographing techniques including CT, MRI are used in dental schools. The most common oral diseases other than caries, periodontal disease, and periapical lesions are cyst, amelobalstoma and squamous cell carcinoma.
