Abstract
The various methods of evaluation of radiopaque foreign bodies of the maxillofacial region are reviewed. Emphasis is placed on a systematic approach to the successful interpretation of images rather than radiographic technical methods. The weakness of panoramic radiographs in the localization of foreign bodies of this area is stressed.
