Reliability of CBCT Dataset in Determination of Surgical Approaches of Maxillary Impacted Canine Teeth

Abstract

Background: One of the most commonly impacted teeth is the maxillary canine, right after the third molar. Many potential difficulties might arise before, during, and after the extraction of impacted maxillary teeth. Performing thorough radiographic exams can be beneficial. The information needed for a two-dimensional (2D) examination is provided by the periapical and panoramic radiographs (OPG) utilized in conventional dental radiography. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a novel imaging technology developed in response to the shortcomings of traditional (2-D) imaging methods. Everyone will gain from these problems being resolved.Objectives: This study aims to evaluate two types of 2D (OPG) and 3D imaging (CBCT) approaches for diagnosing and treating maxillary impacted canines. Furthermore, to determine the best approach selection option for surgical removal procedures utilizing OPG and CBCT, focusing on the sagittal section for increased safety and efficiency. Materials and Methods: This study is a prospective radiographic investigation of 80 patients with CBCT radiographic evaluation. Eighteen cases (22.5%) of men and 62 (77.5%) of women were reported. Version 27 of SPSS was used to analyze the data. The independent t-test offered information on the reliability of the quantitative variables. We utilized a Chi-square test for the qualitative analysis, and for the quantitative analysis, we used a cross-tabulation to determine the level of agreement. Results: The t-test result, depending on surgical approach time, was 8.4; there is a significant difference between the two radiography prognoses, with p-values of (0.000) at the significant level (0.05). The % age of agreement between impactions and surgical techniques ranged from 87.5% to 100%. Conclusion:This study shows that the CBCT guide can provide accurate, reliable, and reproducible results in assessing and predicting the kind of impaction and surgical approach in a simple, time-saving manner.

DRIS formulas and PCA approach for evaluation of the nutritional status of walnut trees in the Hawraman area

“…Depending on (Figure 2), the most limiting nutrients in descending order are as follows: Fe>Cu> Zn>Mn>N=Ca>K>P>Mg. Fe and Cu are the most deficient nutrients, while Mg is the most available. The physicochemical characteristics of the soil control nutrient availability [34] . Low soil Fe availability, a high calcium carbonate content, and high P application cause plants' Fe deficit [35] .…”

Modifying Rhizobacteria for Improved Plant Growth and Soil Health in Sustainable Agriculture

“…The importance of sustainable agriculture in addressing global food security and environmental problems is growing. The need for food increases along with the global population, increasing pressure on agricultural systems to produce more while minimizing negative environmental effects [1] . The significance of healthy soil and encouraging plant development in this environment cannot be emphasized [2] .…”
