Dimension of the facial bone wall in the anterior maxilla: a cone‐beam computed tomography study

Abstract: Most tooth sites in the anterior maxilla have a thin facial bone wall. Such a thin bone wall may undergo marked dimensional diminution following tooth extraction. This fact must be considered before tooth removal and the planning of rehabilitation in the anterior segment of the dentition in the maxilla.

“…In the anterior maxilla, the facial bone wall is usually thinner than 2 mm, as demonstrated in several CBCT studies (Braut et al, 2011;Januario et al, 2011;Vera et al, 2012b). In the present study, none of the central areas revealed a facial wall thickness of ≥ 2 mm.…”

“…Furthermore, Januário et al (2011) registered a mean buccal bone thickness of 0.5-0,6mm in maxillary incisors and canines 5mm apical to the crest on CBCTs. If that had been the case in the present study, a more pronounced reduction in buccal height and width could have been observed .…”

“…Previous CBCT studies [18][19][20][21][22] investigating facial bone thickness in various regions of the maxilla and mandible have found that a thin alveolar bone wall is usually present in both jaws. In the current study, at the first quarter of the root level, the thickness of the buccal and lingual alveolar plates was less than 1 mm in 81.5% and 87.0% of the lower incisors, respectively.…”
