Audit of dental record-keeping at a university dental hospital.

Background: Good record-keeping is fundamental in clinical practice and essential for practising dental practitioners and those in training.

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the level of compliance with clinical record-keeping by undergraduate dental students and staff at a university dental hospital.

Setting: The selected study setting was the Admissions and Emergency section at a university dental hospital.

Incidental Pathologic Findings from Orthodontic Pretreatment Panoramic Radiographs.

Panoramic radiography is frequently performed for new patients, follow-ups and treatment in progress. This enables dental clinicians to detect pathology, view important structures, and assess developing teeth. The objective of the study was to determine prevalence of incidental pathologic findings (IPFs) from orthodontic pretreatment panoramic radiographs at a university dental hospital.
