Background: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the maxillary sinus septa in patients with various dental arch statuses with panoramic and Cone-Beam Computerize Tomography (CBCT).
Materials and Methods: In the panoramic radiography and CBCT scans of 400 patients aged 16-86 years, 800 maxillary sinuses on both sides were retrospectively examined. In addition, the height and location of the septa were evaluated with CBCT.
Results: The septa rate was determined as 51.8% with panoramic radiography and 66.8% with CBCT. The septa were more commonly found in dentate patients than edentulous patients. The septa are generally localized at the middle part of the maxillary sinus and the height was approximately 7.31mm.
Conclusions: Maxillary sinus septa can be found in the anterior, middle and posterior regions and in dentate, partially edentulous and edentulous patients. Detailed information about the height, location, and morphology of the septa is important to reduce complications in maxil-lary sinus surgical procedures.

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, panoramik ve konik ışınlı bilgisayarlı tomografi (KIBT) ile çeşitli dental ark durumlarına sahip hastalarda maksiller sinüs septasının değerlendirmesi amaçlandı.
Materyal ve Metod: 16-86 yaş aralığında 400 hastanın panoramik radyografi ve KIBT taramalarında her iki tarafta 800 maksiller sinüs retrospektif olarak incelendi. Ayrıca maksiller sinus septasının yüksekliği ve yeri KIBT ile değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: Panoramik radyografide septa oranı %51.8, KIBT'de %66.8 olarak belirlendi. Septalar dişli hastalarda dişsiz hastalara göre daha sık bulundu. Septalar, maksiller sinüsün genellikle orta kısmında izlendi ve yaklaşık 7.31 mm yüksekliğinde tespit edildi.
Sonuç: Maksiller sinüs cerrahilerinde komplikasyonları azaltmak için septanın yüksekliği, yeri ve morfolojisi hakkında detaylı bilgi önem arz etmektedir.
