Abstract:The objectives of this retrospective study were to measure the prevalence of complete ponticulus posticus (CPP), to propose a new classification based on two different shapes of CPP, to compare these shapes with age and gender, and to test two different methods of measurements of the diameters of CPP on cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Material and methods: We used 2012 CBCT scans from Planmeca Promax 3D Mid and Romexis 5.1 software tools to measure the height and width of the CPP, and we measured the sur… Show more
