Item Assessment of gingival thickness in the maxillary anterior region using different techniques(2022) Yilmaz, Mediha Nur Nisanci; Secgin, Cansu Koseoglu; Ozemre, Mehmet Ozgur; Inonu, Elif; Aslan, Serhat; Bulut, Sule; 35796801Objectives Gingival phenotype is closely related to treatment success and aesthetic results in the maxillary anterior region. Several methods were proposed to measure the dimensions of the gingival tissue. This study aimed to evaluate the gingival thickness using clinical and radiographic techniques and to explore the association between gingival thickness and gingival phenotypes classified by color-coded phenotype probes. Materials and methods The gingival thickness of 86 periodontally healthy maxillary anterior teeth was assessed using transgingival probing (TGP) and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). The gingival phenotype was classified as thin, medium, thick, or very thick by transparency of the color-coded probes through the gingival sulcus. The labial alveolar bone thickness was measured on CBCT images. The keratinized tissue width (KTW) was recorded. Results Good to excellent agreement was found between TGP and CBCT regarding the thickness of the gingiva (p<0.001). There was a very high correlation between the phenotypes determined by color-coded probes and the gingival thickness measured by TGP (r=0.953, p<0.001). KTW was significantly higher in thick and very thick phenotype groups compared with thin phenotype group. Conclusion Cone-beam computed tomography images and the probe transparency method with color-coded probes are reliable for identifying the gingival phenotype in the maxillary anterior region, based on comparisons to direct transgingival probing.Item Evaluation of Mandibular Third Molar Region in a Turkish Population Using Cone-Beam Computed Tomography(2020) Orhan, Buyuk Kaan; Yilmaz, Dilek; Ozemre, Mehmet Ozgur; Kamburoglu, Kivanc; Gulen, Orhan; Gullsahi, Ayse; 0000-0002-4134-5756; 33135608; AAG-1491-2021Objectives: To evaluate impacted mandibular third molar tooth region and obtain linear measurements using CBCT images and to assess the relationship between the impacted third molar and the mandibular canal. Methods: CBCT scans of 351 patients (208 females, 143 males) were assessed. Age, gender, and impaction site were recorded for each patient. The relationship of third molars with the vertical axis of second molars, 2nd molar resorption and the relationship between third molar apices and the mandibular canal were assessed. In addition, the distance between ramus and second molar, mesiodistal width of the third molar, the angle between third molar and second molar, and width of the third molar capsule were measured. Binary Logistic Regression, Chi-Square Test, and General Linear Model were used for statistical analysis. Results: The highest percentage of impaction was found for mesioangular followed by transversal and vertical. The transversal impacted third molars revealed a significant association with adjacent second molar root resorption (p<0.001). There was a statistical significance between the second molar resorption and distance between ramus and second molar (p<0.001). The mesioangular impacted third molars revealed significant relation with the mandibular canal (p<0.05). The most frequent variation found was the dental canal followed by the retromolar canal. In general, higher measurement values were obtained for men when compared to women (p<0.05). Conclusion: CBCT assessment of the third molar region provided useful information regarding impacted mandibular third molar surgery operations.Item External apical root resorption after nonextraction orthodontic treatment with labial vs. lingual fixed appliances(2019) Pamukcu, Hande; Polat-Ozsoy, Omur; Gulsahi, Ayse; Ozemre, Mehmet Ozgur; 31792608Objectives The aim of this retrospective study is to compare external apical root resorption (EARR) after labial and lingual fixed orthodontic treatment, as detected with panoramic radiographs. Materials and methods Sixty subjects were divided into two groups according to the treatment type: lingual (30 patients) and labial (30 patients) fixed orthodontic treatment. Panoramic radiographs which were obtained at the beginning of treatment (T0) and at the end of the treatment (T1) were evaluated. The maxillary and mandibular central and lateral incisors, as well as canine crown and root lengths were measured for T0 and T1. Crown to root ratios were used to determine EARR. Data were evaluated using analysis of variance and chi(2) analysis. Results In all, 5 patients (16.7%) in the lingual group and 7 patients (23.3%) in the labial group had a minimum of one tooth with severe EARR, while 9 patients (30%) in the lingual group and 14 patients (46.7%) in the labial group had no EARR. A total of 26 teeth (7.2%) in the lingual group and 34 teeth (9.4%) in the labial group developed severe EARR; however, 184 teeth (51.1%) in the lingual group and 202 teeth (56.1%) in the labial group did not reveal any EARR. No statistically significant difference was found for the resorption rates between the treatment groups (p> 0.05). Although not statistically significant, there was a higher percentage of severe EARR in the mandible within the labial group. Conclusions Both lingual and labial orthodontic techniques showed statistically similar root resorption rates. EARR is a multifactorial issue and individual predispositions must also be taken into consideration.
