Can someone explain the differences between Colles and Smith's fractures to me? I don't see the difference on x-ray.

Thanks but my problem is not being able to tell them apart on x-ray.
And I never really understood the dinner fork thing.
But what about when they're both lateral view like these? How do you differentiate?
