Background: The mandible is a very important bone for forensic medicine, anthropology, anatomy and odontology sciences. This bone has many functions such as speaking, chewing and swallowing. This study was carried out to examine the relationship between morphometric parameters obtained from the head of the mandible and other parameters of the mandible.
Materials and Methods: In our study, 45 dry mandible bones were used. These bones were photographed and measured in the Image J program. These measurements were the distance of the head of the mandible to mental foramen (right, left), the distance of the head of the mandible to angle of the mandible (right, left), the distance of the head of the mandible to gnathion (right, left), the distance of the head of the mandible to coronoid process (right, left), the distance of the head of the mandible to the mandibular notch (right, left), the distance of the head of the mandible to alveolar juga (right, left) and the distance between right and left head of the mandible.
Results: While no difference was found in terms of direction in dry mandibles with correlation analysis (p>0.05), a high significant correlation was found in 18 parameters (p≤0.05).
Conclusions: In our study, correlations were found between parameters obtained from the head of the mandible and other parameters of the mandible.
(Amaç: Mandibula adli tıp, antropoloji, anatomi ve odontoloji bilimleri için çok önemli bir kemiktir. Bu kemiğin konuşma, çiğneme ve yutma gibi birçok işlevi vardır. Bu çalışma mandibula başından elde edilen morfometrik parametrelerin mandibulanın diğer parametreleri arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesi amacıyla yapıldı.
Materyal ve metod: Çalışmamızda 45 adet kuru mandibula kemiği kullanıldı. Bu kemiklerin fotoğrafları çekilerek Image J programında ölçümleri yapıldı. Bu ölçümler, mandibula başının mental foramenlere olan mesafesi (sağ, sol), mandibula başının mandibula açısına olan mesafesi (sağ, sol), mandibula başının gnathion'a olan mesafesi (sağ, sol), mandibula başının koronoid çıkıntıya olan mesafesi (sağ, sol), mandibula başının mandibular çentiğe olan mesafesi (sağ, sol), mandibula başının alveollere olan mesafesi juga (sağ, sol) ve mandibulanın sağ ve sol başı arasındaki mesafe.
Bulgular: Korelasyon analizi ile kuru mandibulalarda yön açısından fark bulunmazken (p>0.05), parametreler arası ikili ve ilişkilerde ise 18 parametrede yüksek anlamlı ilişki bulundu (p≤0.05).
Sonuç: Çalışmamızda mandibula başından elde edilen parametreler ile mandibulanın diğer parametreleri arasında ilişkiler bulundu.)
