*DENTITION* Teeth are arranged in a smile-like curve Crowns and apices of all teeth visible

for each of the six areas identified, describe the features that should be visible to determine the diagnostic quality of the panoramic image 1

*RAMUS AND CERVICAL SPINE* Ramus should be the same width on each side Crevical spine may be present along edges, but should not overlap the ramus

for each of the six areas identified, describe the features that should be visible to determine the diagnostic quality of the panoramic image 2

*NASAL CAVITY AND MAXILLARY SINUS* Hard palate double image appears above the apices of the maxillary teeth

for each of the six areas identified, describe the features that should be visible to determine the diagnostic quality of the panoramic image 3

*BODY OF MANDIBLE* Inferior border of mandible appears smooth and continuous

for each of the six areas identified, describe the features that should be visible to determine the diagnostic quality of the panoramic image 4

*CONDYLE* Condyle is centered, are of equal size on each side and on the same horizontal plane

for each of the six areas identified, describe the features that should be visible to determine the diagnostic quality of the panoramic image 5

*HYOID* Hyoid bone double image appears Hyoid may slightly overlap mandible

for each of the six areas identified, describe the features that should be visible to determine the diagnostic quality of the panoramic image 6
