Abstract

Amaç: Üst çene ön bölgedeki dental implant uygulamalarından önce, orta hatta ve santral kesici dişlerin hemen arkasında yer alan insiziv kanalın değerlendirilmesi tedavi başarısı için önemlidir. Yapılan bu çalışmanın amacı insiziv kanalın morfolojisi ve boyutlarını değerlendirirken, cinsiyetin bu parametrelere olası etkilerini de incelemektir.

Gereç ve Yöntem: Hacettepe Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi Periodontoloji Anabilim Dalına dental implant yaptırmak için başvuran hastalardan rastgele olarak seçilen 160 hastaya ait konik ışınlı bilgisayarlı tomografi (KIBT) görüntüleri çalışmaya dahil edildi. Tüm KIBT görüntülerinde insiziv kanalın yüksekliği, insiziv foramenin çapı ve insiziv kanalın morfolojik tipi (silindir, muz, kum saati, huni şeklinde) değerlendirildi. Sayısal değişkenler için iki grubun karşılaştırılmasında bağımsız gruplarda t-testi, kategorik değişkenler arasında ilişkinin incelenmesinde ise ki-kare testi kullanıldı. İstatistiksel anlamlılık düzeyi p<0.05 olarak kabul edildi.

Bulgular: Ortalama insiziv kanal yüksekliği ve insiziv foramen çapı sırasıyla, 10.91 ± 3.44 ve 3.48 ± 1.05 mm olarak ölçüldü. İnsiziv kanal morfolojisi incelendiğinde en sık silindir şeklinde, en az ise kum saati şeklinde insiziv kanal alt gruplarına rastlandı. İnsiziv kanalın yüksekliği ve insiziv foramenin çapı erkeklerde kadınlara göre anlamlı derecede fazlaydı (p<0.05).

Sonuç: Cinsiyetin kanalın morfolojik tipine etkisi gözlenmezken, insiziv kanalın boyutlarının erkeklerde fazla olduğu görüldü.

The effect of gender on the morphology and dimensions of the incisive canal in the Turkish population: CBCT study

Abstract

Objective: Evaluation of the incisive canal located in the midline and just behind the central incisors before dental implant applications in the anterior maxilla is important for the success of the treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the morphology and dimensions of the incisive canal, and to examine the possible effects of gender on these parameters.

Materials and Method: Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of 160 randomly selected patients who applied to Hacettepe University Faculty of Dentistry, Periodontology Department for dental implants were included in the study. The height of the incisive canal, the diameter of the incisive foramen, and the morphological type of the incisive canal (cylindrical, banana-like, hourglass-like, funnel-like shape) were evaluated in the CBCT images. For numerical variables, the t-test was used to compare two groups, and the chi-square test was used to examine the relationship between categorical variables. Statistical significance level was accepted as p<0.05.

Results: The mean values of incisive canal height and incisive foramen diameter were 10.91 ± 3.44 and 3.48 ± 1.05 mm, respectively. While the cylindrical shape was the most frequent incisive canal configuration, hourglass-like canals were observed to be the least. The height of the incisive canal and the diameter of the incisive foramen were significantly higher in males than females (p<0.05).

Conclusion: Gender had no effect on the distribution of the morphological type of the incisive canal. It was found that the sizes of the incisive canal were higher in male subjects.
