RESUMO O objetivo deste estudo foi obter as densidades radiográficas de diferentes filmes periapicais por meio de um programa computadorizado que utiliza a imagem equivalente em alumínio (alumínio-equivalente). Avaliaram-se os filmes Agfa Dentus M2 “Comfort", Kodak InSight, Kodak Ektaspeed Plus, Kodak Ultra-speed e Kodak D. Todos foram expostos aos raios X juntamente com um escalímetro de Alumínio, variando-se o tempo de exposição (0,1 a 1 segundo). Após a leitura das densidades radiográficas construiu-se um gráfico para compararmos as propriedades sensitométricas dos filmes. O filmes mais sensíveis foram o Agfa Dentus M2 “Comfort" e o Kodak InSight, e os menos sensíveis o Kodak Ultra-speed e o Kodak D. Os filmes Agfa Dentus M2 “Comfort" e Kodak InSight apresentaram os maiores contrastes. Os resultados obtidos por este método indicam que deve-se utilizar os filmes Agfa Dentus M2 “Comfort" e Kodak InSight para reduzir a dose de radiação recebida pelo paciente.

Abstract in English
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to obtain radiographic densities from different dental intraoral x-ray films through a software using aluminium-equivalent image. The densities had been measured in order to compare dental x-ray films in terms of speed, base plus fog, and contrast. Agfa Dentus M2 “Comfort", Kodak InSight, Kodak Ektaspeed Plus, Kodak Ultra-speed and Kodak D-speed films were evaluated. All films were exposed together with aluminium wedge, at times ranging from 0,1-1 second. By plotting a graphic of density against exposure, sensitometric properties were compared. Agfa Dentus M2 “Comfort" and Kodak InSight films obtained the highest film speed; Kodak Ultra-speed and Kodak D-speed films exhibited the lowest sensitivity. Agfa Dentus M2 “Comfort" and Kodak InSight films had presented valuesm to contrast superior to other films. Therefore, Agfa Dentus M2 “Comfort" and Kodak InSight films must be recommended to minimize the radiation dose to the patient.
