Thetooth should be tested with the electric test, for pulp vitality, if this test cannot be made, an exploratory, diagnostic opening may bemade into the tooth of sufficient depth to ascertain whether or not thepulp is vital. 2. To Mistake the Anterior Palatine Foramen for an Ab-scess Cavity. Figure 394 shows the anterior palatine foramen. Depending on the Rli. [DING R. IDJUCR. WHS 3*< angle of the rays and the position of the film, this foramen, which is inthe region of the apices, and between the roots, of the upper centralincisors, may have the radiographic appearance of an abscess cavity at theapex of one of the central incis
