Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, birinci ve ikinci molar dişlerin
furkasyon bölgelerindeki mine incisi prevelansını tespit ederek periodontal hastalıklarla
ilişkisini ortaya koymaktır.

Gereç
ve Yöntem: Çalışmada 682 erkek 936
kadın toplam 1618 hastadan elde edilen 2224 Konik Işınlı Bilgisayarlı Tomografi
(KIBT) görüntüsü üzerinde alt ve üst çenelere ait toplam 3000 adet 1. ve 2.
molar diş değerlendirilmiştir. Furkasyon bölgesinde mine incisi bulunan ve/veya
varlığından şüphelenilen dişler 3 boyutlu olarak daha ayrıntılı incelenmiştir.
Mine incilerinin şekil, lokasyon ve çap gibi özellikleri yine 3 boyutlu olarak
incelenerek ortaya konmuştur.

Bulgular: Toplam 8 hastada 11 (%0.3) adet mine incisi varlığı
tespit edilmiştir.  Maksiller birinci
molar dişlerin % 0.27’sinde, ikinci molar dişlerin % 0.74’ünde furkasyon
bölgesinde mine incisi tespit edilirken incelenen 1327 mandibular molar dişin
hiç birinde mine incisi tespit edilmemiştir. Ek olarak, mine incisi tespit
edilen dişlerde periodontal yıkım izlenmemiştir.

Sonuç: Çalışmamızda furkasyon bölgesinde yer alan mine incisi
prevalansı % 0.3 olarak tespit edilmiştir. Bununla birlikte mine incisi tespit
edilen dişlerde periodontal yıkım izlenmemesi mine incisinin periodontitis
oluşması için tek başına yeterli bir faktör olmadığını, periodontal hastalığın
başlamasından çok ilerlemesini etkilediğini ortaya konmuştur.

Anahtar Sözcükler: Mine incisi, furkasyon bölgesi, periodontitis

PREVALENCE OF ENAMEL PEARLS IN FURCATION
AREA OF FIRST AND SECOND MOLAR TEETH

ABSTRACT

 Aim: The aim of this study is to identify the the
prevalence of enamel pearls in the furcation areas of the first and second
molar teeth and to reveal their association with periodontal disease.

Materials
and Method: In this study, 2224 Cone
Beam Computerized Tomography (CBCT) images were obtained from 1618 patients
(963 female and 682 male) were evaluated. A total of 3000 maxillary and
mandibular first and second molar teeth were examined. The teeth with enamel
pearls or suspected enamel pearls in the furcation area were examined in more
detail in 3-D images. In addition, enamel pearls features such as shape,
location and diameter were evaluated in 3-D images.

Results: A total of 11 enamel pearl were detected in 8 patients
(9 teeth). 0.27% of them were found in the maxillary first molar teeth and
0.74% in the maxillary second molar teeth. None of the 1327 mandibular molar
teeth had enamel pearls. In addition, periodontal destruction was not observed
in the tooth where enamel pear was detected.

Conclussion: In this study, the prevalence of enamel pearl in the
furcation area was recorded as 0.3%. However, the periodontal destruction was
not detected in the tooth which the enamel pearl was detected. This suggests
that the enamel pearls were not a sufficient factor to form periodontitis
alone, but it affects the progression far beyond the onset of periodontal
disease.
