Root Angulation
I find myself getting 1 number off at times. The correct answer is 7 and I have 8. I can guess which one i got wrong but this was my initial guess
The following are all 1s due to non-parallel roots.
– UR 4-5
-UR 1-2
– UL 1-2
-LL 4-5
– LL1-2
-LR 1-2
-LR 4-5
-LR 5-6

I like the scoring practice! – First of all – good job looking at things.
When starting out on these scores I struggled with which tooth to call “at fault”. Remember the ABO sample showing a bunch of perpendicular lines to figure out which tooth is awry. [Also comfort in that it’s a range of acceptable score for these as put out in their sample cases]
For the LR4 and LL4, do you guys think that could be dillaceration on each of those roots? The crowns look upright and they have this weird twist.

Roots touching is definitely 2 points on scoring
-
why does it say canine is only 1 Point, and to exclude canines
-
Pano’s have distortion so you don’t score the canine UNLESS it is a CBCT but i doubt they will give us that.

Perfect! Yes, remember difference on Traditional Pano vs CBCT

Hahaha! Just remember if someone wants 3 ortho opinions they only need to ask two orthodontists (or sometimes only one!)
