Table 2.
1. In the area of interest, do you see any dental disease (caries, periodontal or periapical disease, tooth fractures etc.)? |
2. In the area of interest, do you see any abnormalities involving the periodontal/periapical bone? |
3. In the area of interest, do you see any changes extending into the alveolar bone beyond the confines of periodontal/periapical area? |
4. Do you think that the radiographic appearance is only due to dental disease? |
5. Do you feel that the clinical and radiographic findings are consistent with Stage 0 ONJ? |
6. Based on your findings, would you treat the patient only for dental-related problems? |
7. Based on your analysis of the case, in addition to the dental issues, would you also manage the patient as Stage 0 ONJ case? |
8. Given the clinical and radiographic findings, do you feel that after treatment this patient will have a favourable outcome? |
9. Given the clinical and radiographic findings, do you feel that after treatment this patient is likely to develop clinical ONJ with exposed bone? |
10a. Given the clinical and radiographic findings, do you want to order a CBCT exam for further evaluation of this patient? (first session) |
10b. Do you feel that the CBCT added significant information for the diagnosis and management of this patient? (second session) |
Participants scored each question by checking one of nine checkboxes, as shown. |
