Panoramic radiography is a sufficiently accurate method for interantral bone height imaging at the incisor but not in the canine area.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To analyse the dimensions of interantral bone available for dental implant placement in the fully edentulous maxilla.
Methods: Interantral bone height (IBH) was measured using panoramic radiography and computed tomography (CT). Interantral bone width (IBW) was measured by means of CT.
