NAZOPALATİN KANAL MORFOLOJİSİNİN DENTİSYON DURUMUNA GÖRE DEĞİŞİMİNİN BİLGİSAYARLI TOMOGRAFİ İLE İNCELENMESİ

Amaç: Nazopalatin kanal maksiller anterior bölgedeki önemli anatomik oluşumlardan biridir. Bu çalışmanın amacı nazopalatin (NP) kanal morfolojisinin dentisyon durumuna göre değişimini bilgisayarlı tomografi (BT) ile incelemektir. Yöntem: Toplam 100 hastaya ait bilgisayarlı tomografi görüntüleri retrospektif olarak taranmıştır. Bilgisayarlı tomografi görüntüleri iki gruba ayrıldı: maksiller ön bölgesi dişsiz olan (DG) 50 hasta ve maksiller ön bölgede diş kaybı olmayan, kontrol grubu (KG) olarak adlandırılan 50 hasta. Hastaların yaş, cinsiyet ve dentisyon durumları not edildikten sonra sagittal kesit üzerinde NP kanal uzunluğu, insiziv foramen çapı, NP kanal çapı ve NP kanal ile sert damak arasındaki nazopalatin kanal açısı ölçülmüştür. Aksiyal kesitler üzerinde ise NP kanal sayısı tespit edilmiştir. Bulgular: Nazopalatin açısı ile dentisyon durumu arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunmamıştır (p=0,151). IF çapı DG da istatistiksel olarak anlamlı derecede daha yüksek bulunmuştur (p=0,041). Nazopalatin kanal uzunluğu ise KG da anlamlı derecede yüksek bulunmuştur (p

EVALUATION OF CHANGES IN NASOPALATINE CANAL MORPHOLOGY ACCORDING TO DENTITION STATUS BY COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY

Objective: The nasopalatine canal (NPC) is one of the important anatomic structures in anterior maxilla. The aim of this study was to evaluate thechanges in NPC morphology according to dentition status in the maxillary anterior region by computed tomography (CT).Methods: Computed tomography images of 100 patients were screened retrospectively. Images were divided into two groups by dental status: anedentulous group (EG) of 50 patients who have edentulous premaxilla and a control group (CG) of 50 patients who have all incisor teeth in thepremaxillary region. After recording the age, sex, and dentition status of the patients, the NPC diameter, NPC length, incisive foramen (IF) diameter,and angle between the NPC and palatine bone were measured in sagittal sections, and the number of NPCs was determined in axial sections.Results: There was no significant difference between NPC angle and dentition status (p=0.151). The NPC diameter was significantly higher in theEG (p=0.002), as was the IF diameter (p=0.041). In addition, NPC length was significantly higher in the CG (p
