DESCRIPTION OF PANORAMIC RADIOGRAPH FAILURE AT RSGM UNPAD
The panoramic radiograph is a single and a large X-ray film that shows the entire face and the bony structure of the teeth. There are few errors in performing panoramic radiographs such as positioning errors and technical errors. The purpose of this research is to identify the failure of panoramic radiograph at RSGM UNPAD.
The method of this research was a descriptive research with secondary data collected by a cross-sectional technique from February until March 2016. There were 418 total sample of failed panoramic radiograph taken in the Radiology Installation of RSGM UNPAD.
From the result, the largest proportion of the sample is from criteria 9, contact between tongue and palate, which accounts for (46.41%). This is followed by criteria 3, chin pointing upward (23.44%), criteria 10, open lips (20.81%), criteria 2, head behind of the plane focus (17.46%), criteria 7, head turned to the right (14.35%), criteria 11, incorrect position of the spine (13.39%), and criteria 6, head tilted to the leaf (11.24%). Meanwhile, there are five criteria reported the least number of sample firms, which account for less than 10 percent, namely criteria 1, head forward of the plane focus (9.33%), criteria 4, chin pointing down (8.61%), criteria 8, head turned to the left (8.37%), criteria 5, titled to the right (7.65%), and criteria 12, movement during exposure (6.93%).
As a conclusion, the error that occurs most often is the patient does not put their tongue on the palate accounts for. While, fewest errors of the criteria applicable are as much movement during exposure.
