| Summary: | Impacted teeth are a common pathology in dental practice. With the greatest frequency is third molars impaction of the upper and lower jaw. Essential for the proper treatment plan has an accurate assessment of the situation of these teeth in the jaw, as well as their relationship with surrounding structures. Of great importance is to determine the position of impacted third molars of the lower jaw to the mandibular channel, in order to prevent complications related to vascular-nerve bundle in this channel. This review article presents a significant X-ray features published by several authors in the literature. Compare the diagnostic capabilities between two-dimensional method -Orthopantomography (OPG) and three-dimensional Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). |
