It would be a mistake,I believe, to use such a tooth as the malformed one shown in Fig. 236 asan abutment for a bridge of any extent. It should be borne in mind thatunless the pose is exactly right—and we seldom have it so—the teeth, asthey appear on the radiograph, do not represent definitely the exact lengthof the teeth themselves. Nevertheless, the radiograph does give us afairlv definite idea of the relative length of the
