<\/span><\/p>\nWe currently have scanners such as CBCT that can reproduce 3D images of teeth, bones, soft tissues and nerves with millimetric accuracy. Even so, we can never forget the origins and procedures that are still very useful for making accurate diagnoses.<\/span><\/p>\n One of them is the Clark’s Technique<\/strong>, which we are going to tell you about today.<\/span><\/p>\n The Clark’s Technique, also known as the Mouth Object Rule or Eccentric Projection Technique, was first described a little over 100 years ago (1910). It is based on the change in relative position of an object<\/strong> present in a radiographic examination when the angle of projection of the radiation beam is changed.<\/span><\/p>\n Two periapical radiographs<\/a> of the area to be studied are required to carry it out. One of them has to be orthoradial, to achieve horizontal and vertical angulation values, and the other x-ray has to be mesioradial or distorted. In all cases, the point of incidence of the radiation beam must remain in the same place.<\/span><\/p>\n More specifically, a beam of light is made to fall on two objects perpendicularly, so that they will be superimposed and it will not be possible to distinguish which of the two is closer. By modifying the angulation of the light, the image shows two different bodies, allowing to distinguish the farthest one<\/strong> (moving towards the cone) and the closest one<\/strong> (towards the opposite direction).<\/span><\/p>\n The Clark Technique is very useful during an endodontic treatment for actions such as<\/span><\/p>\n Among the equipment you can find in the market to perform periapical X-rays, for example to carry out the Clark Technique, we highlight Morita’s Veraview IX<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n It offers total comfort<\/strong> to the patient and dentist thanks to its compact, light and flexible design, as well as taking up very little space. It is also capable of providing maximum image quality<\/strong> with a minimum radiation dose thanks to the high-frequency direct current generator. So it is also safe and effective<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n To learn more about the Veraview IX, please contact us<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\nWhat is Clark’s Technique?<\/span><\/h2>\n
