“…In another study, Leonardi et al [ 28 ] stated that a sella turcica bridge is more frequent in subjects with dental transposition than in the control group. Similar results have been reported by other authors who investigated correlations between sella turcica bridging and dental abnormalities using lateral and panoramic radiographs [ 21 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 29 ].…”

“…Concerning dental abnormalities, the authors of the studies included analyzed the following: palatally displaced canines [ 21 , 22 , 27 ], impaction or transposition of canines or premolars [ 23 ], congenitally missing lateral incisors [ 24 ], impacted canines and hyperdontia [ 25 ], impacted canines [ 26 ], dental agenesis [ 26 , 29 ], hyperdontia [ 26 ], maxillary or mandibular dental transposition [ 28 ], congenitally missing second mandibular premolars or the presence of palatally displaced canines [ 30 ]. Thus, in most studies, the study groups were non-homogenous.…”

Background: The sella turcica is a saddle-like structure in the middle cranial fossa on the intracranial surface of the sphenoid bone, visible on lateral cephalograms routinely conducted for orthodontic diagnosis. The development of facial structures follows similar traits to the sella turcica: glandular anomalies may be associated with functional disorders, e.g., altered hormonal levels, thus influencing dental development. The aim of this study is to find out if there is any association between the morphology of the sella turcica on cephalometric radiographs and the presence of dental abnormalities. (2) Methods: The search was conducted on 27 January 2021 in four search engines: Medline (PubMed Central), Scopus, Web of Science, Embase. The keywords used in the search strategy were as follows: “sella turcica” AND (“dental abnormalities” OR “dental anomalies” OR “malocclusion”). Since all the studies finally included were retrospective case–control studies, the Newcastle–Ottawa Quality Assessment Form for Case–Control Studies was applied. (3) Results: The search strategy identified 465 articles: 289 from PubMed, 121 from Scopus, 32 from Web of Science and 23 from Embase. Finally, 10 full-text papers were included into qualitative analysis. (4) Conclusions: Sella turcica bridging is very frequent among orthodontic patients. A clear association exists between dental abnormalities and sella turcica bridging.

“…Because of this developmental relationship and the ready visibility of the sella turcica on lateral cephalometric radiographs taken routinely in orthodontic practice, size and anatomical deviations in the sella turcica and their associations with dental anomalies has been a question looked into by several research teams. The prevalence of sella turcica bridging (calcification) for example has been found to be associated with dental anomalies including palatally displaced canines, canine impaction, premolar agenesis, or tooth transpositions (Leonardi et al, 2006;Leonardi et al, 2009;Leonardi et al, 2011;Ali et al, 2014;Haji Ghadimi et al, 2017;Scribante et al, 2017;Arcos-Palomino and Ustrell-Torrent, 2019;Alqahtani, 2020;Sato and Endo, 2020). Other studies however have not corroborated these results (El Wak et al, 2018;Ozturk et al, 2020).…”

“…Two studies have looked specifically at patients with maxillary lateral incisor agenesis, and while both have found an increased frequency of sella turcica bridging compared to those without agenesis (Scribante et al, 2017;Alqahtani, 2020), one study found no association with sella size (Scribante et al, 2017), whereas the other study found a decreased sella turcica length in those with agenesis (Alqahtani, 2020). None of the abovementioned studies however have looked at the sella turcica in relation to dental anomalies in a population with CLP.…”

Aim: To investigate differences in sella turcica size and bridging in children with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) with or without concomitant dental anomalies. Patients and Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out looking at 56 children with nonsyndromic UCLP. Lateral cephalograms, taken before alveolar bone grafting, were used to assess sella turcica height, width, area, and bridging. Panoramic radiographs were used to evaluate the presence of dental anomalies in the cleft area including agenesis, supernumerary, and peg-shaped lateral incisors. Differences between sella turcica measurements in the presence or absence of dental anomalies were assessed using t tests. Differences between the prevalence of dental anomalies and sella turcica bridging were assessed using χ2 and Fisher exact tests. Multinomial logistic regression was used to investigate potential associations between sella measurements and dental anomalies. Results: Twenty-six of the 56 children presented with agenesis of the cleft-side lateral incisor, while 7 had a supernumerary, and 19 had a peg-shaped lateral incisor. With regard to sella turcica bridging, 27 children had no calcification, 25 partial and 4 complete calcification. Children with agenesis of the cleft-side lateral incisor showed a shorter sella maximum height ( P = .010) and a smaller area ( P = .019). When looking at sella turcica bridging, 100% of children with complete calcification showed agenesis of the cleft-side lateral incisor, compared with 52% and 33% of children with partial calcification and no calcification, respectively ( P = .034). Conclusions: Children with UCLP and sella turcica bridging are more likely to present with agenesis of the cleft-side maxillary lateral incisor.

“…Kucia et al [ 5 ] added three other variants of sellar dysmorphology to the classification: hypertrophic posterior clinoid process, hypotrophic posterior clinoid process, and oblique contour of the floor. The most commonly investigated anomaly of sella turcica is sella turcica bridging [ 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 ]. Bridging is described as a fusion of anterior and posterior clinoid processes [ 6 ].…”

The frequency of some sella turcica abnormalities on cephalometric radiographs is age related. Chronological age might not overlap with growth; however, no studies could be found on the association between sellar morphology and dental age. Although an association exists between sella turcica bridging and dental abnormalities, no studies have been found correlating sellar abnormalities other than bridging with dental abnormalities. The aim of this study was to find any correlations between sella turcica abnormalities and dental age or dental abnormalities. Methods: Lateral cephalograms and panoramic radiographs of 206 children aged 6–15 years were analyzed for sela turcica abnormalities, Demirijan dental age, and dental abnormalities. Results: The prevalence of dental abnormalities in patients with sela turcica abnormalities was 16.98%, while in those with normal sella, it was 3%. The differences between dental and chronological age were higher in patients with sella turcica abnormalities (p = 0.002). Dental abnormalities were more prevalent (p = 0.001) in patients with sellar abnormalities other than sellar bridging than in those with sellar bridging or normal sella. Conclusions: Sella turcica abnormalities are correlated with delayed dental age. Dental abnormalities are more frequent in patients with sellar abnormalities. Dental abnormalities are less frequent in subjects with sellar bridges compared to those with other sellar abnormalities.
