Intraoral periapical radiographs can be helpful and very import-ant in estimating the mesiodistal dimensions of the potential area for implant placement and for obtaining an initial estimate of the vertical dimension. Objective: to understand the use of intraoral radiography in prosthodontics. Conclusion: the use of in-traoral radiography has enormous benefits for rehabilitation treatment, especially in prosthodontics, be it the use of periapical, bitewing and occlusal techniques.
