Objective: Condensing osteitis (CO) is sclerotic changes caused by bone against low-grade inflammation and diagnosis of the disease is made radiographically. The purpose of this retrospective study is to investigate the causes and incidence of CO in a group of patients who applied to Akdeniz University Faculty of Dentistry.
Material- Method: One thousand seven hundred twenty five panoramic radiograps taken from patients who applied to Akdeniz University Faculty of Dentistry Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology with various complaints were evaluated retrospectively. The frequency of CO, location the presence of treatment in the tooth with CO, the treatment type, and the relationship of CO with gender and age were evaluated. p<0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: CO was detected in 46 of 1725 patients between the ages of 13-72. CO was more common in mandibular first molars and root canal treated teeth, and this was statistically significant. No significant difference was found between the genders in terms of incidence.
Conclusions: This study showed that CO was more common in patients treated with root-canal treatment, unlike previous studies conducted in other countries and in different regions of the same population. 

Akdeniz Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi’ne Başvuran Bir Grup Hastada Kondensing Osteitis Olgularının Analizi

Öz

Amaç: Kondensing osteitis (KO), kemiğin düşük dereceli enflamasyona karşı sklerotik değişiklikler göstermesi olup, teşhisi radyografik olarak yapılır. Bu retrospektif çalışmanın amacı; Akdeniz Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi’ne başvuran bir grup hastada, KO’nun sebeplerini ve görülme sıklığını araştırmaktır.
Gereç ve yöntemler: Akdeniz Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi Ağız, Diş ve Çene Radyolojisi Anabilim Dalı’na çeşitli şikayetlerle başvuran hastalardan alınan 1725 panoramik radyograf, retrospektif olarak değerlendirildi. KO sıklığı, KO’nun görüldüğü çene, KO bulunan dişte tedavi varlığı ve tedavi tipi, ayrıca KO sıklığının cinsiyet ve yaşla olan ilişkisi değerlendirildi. p<0,05 olması istatistiksel olarak anlamlı kabul edildi. Bulgular: 13-72 yaş aralığındaki 1725 hastanın 46’sında KO tespit edildi. KO, mandibular birinci molar dişlerde ve kanal tedavili dişlerde daha çok görüldü ve bu durum istatistiksel olarak anlamlıydı. Cinsiyetler arasında, görülme sıklığı açısından anlamlı bir farklılık tespit edilmedi. Sonuç: Bu çalışma diğer ülkelerde ve aynı popülasyonun farklı bölgelerinde yapılan önceki çalışmalardan farklı olarak, KO’nun kanal tedavisi gören dişlerde daha çok görüldüğünü ortaya koymuştur.
