  # Widening of PDL with thickened lamina dura is often seen in:
A. TFO
B. Chronic periodontitis
C. Apical periodontitis
D. Gingivitis


The correct answer is A. TFO.

Radiographic signs of trauma from occlusion may include the following: 
• Increased width of the periodontal space, often with thickening of the lamina dura along the lateral aspect of the root, in the apical region, and in bifurcation areas. 
• A "vertical" rather than "horizontal" destruction of the interdental septum. 
• Radiolucency and condensation of the alveolar bone. 
• Root resorption
