Radiographic aspects of periapical images associated with traumatized primary incisors

Periapical radiolucencies involving traumatized primary teeth can be confused with each other and lead to misdiagnosis and treatment. Therefore, it is important to identify radiographic characteristics of periapical radiolucent images in traumatized primary incisors, mainly due to the fact that overlapping of images occurs in this region. Besides, it is frequent to observe follicle expansion making the radiographic diagnosis even more difficult. The objective of this study was to describe, through a literature review, the radiographic characteristics of periapical images associated with traumatized primary incisors.
