The use of digital periapical radiographs to study the prevalence of alveolar domes

Abstract: PurposeIn the present study, we coined the term 'alveolar dome' and aimed to demonstrate the prevalence of alveolar domes through digital periapical radiographs.Materials and MethodsThis study examined 800 digital periapical radiographs in regard to the presence of alveolar domes. The periapical radiographs were acquired by a digital system using a photostimulable phosphor (PSP) plate. The χ2 test, with a significance level of 5%, was used to compare the prevalence of alveolar domes in the maxillary posterior … Show more

“…These sinuses may present innumerable anatomic variations, with the most common being pneumatization of this cavity into the alveolar process, which occurs in 80% of patients. The maxillary first and second molars showed a higher prevalence of alveolar domes, particularly on the vestibular roots, followed by the third molars and second premolars ( 2 , 3 ).…”

“…Pagin et al 9 conducted using CT images, verified prevalence of the root apices protruded into the maxillary sinus in 21.1% of the first pre-molars, 22.2% of the second pre-molars, 20.3% of the first molars, 25% of the second molars, and 11.1% of the third molars. Santos xambre et al 10 was observed that the root apices protruded into the maxillary sinus in 7.75% of the first pre-molars, 19.25% of the second pre-molars, 30% of the first molars, 32% of the second molars, and 22.66% of the third molars. In present study Prevalence of alveolar domes were evaluated both right and left sides of maxillary posterior teeth.…”
