| Abstract: | abstract – A method for radiographic assessment of periodontal bone support and apical root resorption was developed and evaluated. Tests on inter- and intra-radiographer variability revealed little variation between duplicate exposures. A high degree of intra-examiner reproducibility in assessing bone height and tooth length was demonstrated. |
