THE INDICATIONS FOR DENTAL VOLUMETRIC TOMOGRAPHY IN A TURKISH POPULATION SAMPLE

Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the indications prescriptions performed in İzmir Kâtip Çelebi University, Faculty of Dentistry and to examine the age and gender distribution of the patients. Material and Method: In this study, 470 dental volumetric QR, Verona, Italy) obtained from patients who attended to İzmir Katip Çelebi University, Faculty of Dentistry for their dental problems between October 2012 and October 2013 were retrospectively evaluated. Results: Out of 470 patients, 243 were female and 227 were male, whose ages ranged from 6-73 years (mean= 32.56). The major indications for dental volumetric tomography were for the evaluation of the impacted teeth with a percentage of 32.13 %, which was followed by the examination of bone pathologies like cysts and tumors (23.62 %), the assessment for implant planning (21.49 %), and the evaluation of orthodontic anomalies and sinus pathologies respectively. Conclusions: Dental volumetric tomography has become an indispensable diagnostic tool in clinical practice for many professions where two-dimensional radiography remains limited in many cases

BİR TÜRK ÖRNEKLEM GRUBUNDA DENTAL VOLÜMETRİK TOMOGRAFİ ENDİKASYONLARI

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı; İzmir Kâtip Çelebi Üniversitesi, Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi’ndeki diş hekimlerinin dental volümetrik tomografi isteme nedenleri ve bu isteklerin bölüm, yaş ve cinsiyete göre dağılımlarının incelenmesidir.

Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışmada, Ekim 2012-Ekim 2013 tarihleri arasında İzmir Katip Çelebi Üniversitesi, Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi Ağız, Diş ve Çene Radyolojisi Kliniğinde dental volümetrik tomografi(NewTom 5G, QR, Verona, Italy) çekilmiş olan, toplam 470 hastanın bilgileri retrospektif olarak tarandı.

Bulgular: 243’ü kadın, 227’si erkek toplam 470 hastanın yaşlarının 6-73 arasında değiştiği ve ortalamasının 32,56 yıl olduğu belirlendi. En fazla isteğin (%32,13) gömülü dişlerin değerlendirilmesi amacıyla yapıldığı saptandı. Tümör ve kist gibi patolojilerin değerlendirilmesi (%23,62), implant planması (%21,49), ortodontik amaçlı istekler ve sinüs patolojilerinin değerlendirilmesi de başlıca diğer istek nedenleri olarak saptandı.

Sonuç: DVT klinik pratikte iki boyutlu radyografilerin sınırlı kaldığı pek çok vakada klinisyenler için vazgeçilmez bir teşhis aracı haline gelmiştir.
