Dental Case Analysis – Localized Gum Infection With Open Lesion

Case Overview

This clinical photo shows a localized infection in the posterior lower jaw, adjacent to natural teeth. An open gum lesion with visible debris and inflammation is present, suggesting an active infection at the soft-tissue and possibly underlying bone level.

Full Analysis and Diagnosis

Clinical Findings

• Open ulcerated area on the gingiva

• Visible yellow-brown debris consistent with infection

Dental Case Analysis – Apical Infection After Root Canal Treatment

Case Overview

This CBCT image shows the anterior maxillary region with multiple natural teeth. A well-defined radiolucent lesion is visible at the root apex of a previously treated tooth (circled area), indicating a persistent apical infection. Surrounding bone shows early structural changes.

Full Analysis and Diagnosis

Radiographic Findings

• Clear apical radiolucency at root tip

Dental Case Analysis – Root Canal Infection With Apical Bone Loss

Case Overview

This dental X-ray shows a posterior tooth with previous root canal treatment. A clear radiolucent area at the root apex is visible, indicating a persistent or recurrent infection. The surrounding bone shows signs of loss consistent with chronic inflammation.

Full Analysis and Diagnosis

Radiographic Findings

• Root canal–treated tooth with dense coronal restoration

• Apical radiolucency at the root tip

CBCT Teeth Case Analysis – Apical Infection Adjacent to Dental Implant

Case Overview

This CBCT image shows a posterior mandibular area with a natural molar next to an existing dental implant. The natural tooth presents a clear apical radiolucency, indicating infection at the root apex. Bone density changes are visible between the infected tooth and the implant site.

Full Analysis and Diagnosis

Clinical Findings

• Natural molar with deep restoration

Panoramic X-Ray Showing Generalized Bone Loss and Infection Risk Case Analysis

What Is Seen in This Case

The panoramic X-ray shows both upper and lower jaws with multiple teeth present, but the bone levels around many tooth roots appear reduced. In several areas, the bone looks uneven and lower than normal, especially around the front teeth and molar regions. There is also evidence of previous dental treatment on at least one tooth.
