Topographic Analysis of Maxillary Premolars and Molars and Maxillary Sinus Using Cone Beam Computed Tomography

Abstract

For the selection of an appropriate approach on dental implant treatment, the evaluation of maxillary premolars and molars using of CBCT can be recommended.

The Use of Cone‐Beam Computed Tomography in Management of Patients Requiring Dental Implants: An American Academy of Periodontology Best Evidence Review

“…Preoperative assessment of the maxillary sinuses using CBCT imaging is important for patients undergoing implant‐supported restorations in the posterior maxilla since panoramic radiographs fail to accurately detect a significant number of anatomic and pathologic variations in the maxillary sinus 115‐127 …”

“…Preoperative assessment of the maxillary sinuses using CBCT imaging is important for patients undergoing implant-supported restorations in the posterior maxilla since panoramic radiographs fail to accurately detect a significant number of anatomic and pathologic variations in the maxillary sinus. [115][116][117][118][119][120][121][122][123][124][125][126][127] The most common anatomic variations include increased thickness of the sinus membrane, the presence of sinus septa, and sinus pneumatization. 127,128 The clinical significance of the presence of mucosal thickening within the sinus prior to sinus augmentation and subsequent implant placement in the posterior edentulous maxilla remains controversial since a clear classification associating mucosal findings to active sinus pathology is lacking.…”

Influence of Maxillary Sinus Width on Transcrestal Sinus Augmentation Outcomes: Radiographic Evaluation Based on Cone Beam CT

“…34 The American academy of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology proposes that CBCT is an imaging method of gaining the detailed information for the assessment of all dental implant sites. 35 It is also recommended that the occurrence of continued bone GR after dental implant placement should be investigated further using CBCT. 36 Monitoring the effects of sinus augmentation by volumetric measurements using CBCT has been described as an accurate method.…”

Avaliação da relação entre as raízes dos dentes posteriores e o assoalho do seio maxilar em pessoas sem e com fissura labiopalatina

“…O acesso a uma avaliação direta entre raízes de dentes posteriores e o ASM se tornou muito mais simples e objetivo com o uso da TC ou da TCFC, dado a proporção encontrada de trabalhos que usam tais meios de diagnóstico em suas metodologias (ARIJI et al, 2006;BOUQUET et al, 2004;EBERHARDT;TORABINEJAD;CHRISTIANSEN, 1992;GEORGESCU et al, 2012;HASSAN, 2010;HOWE, 2009;JUNG;CHO, 2012;KILIC et al, 2010;KWAK et al, 2004;LOW et al, 2008;OK et al, 2014;PAGIN et al, 2013;SHAHBAZIAN et al, 2014;SHAHBAZIAN et al, 2015;MADJAR, 2006;FODICH;BORNSTEIN, 2014;YOSHIMINE et al, 2012).…”

“…Dentre os trabalhos que se propuseram a estudar a relação anatômica entre as raízes e o ASM (ARIJI et al, 2006;BOUQUET et al, 2004;EBERHARDT;TORABINEJAD;CHRISTIANSEN, 1992;GEORGESCU et al, 2012;HASSAN, 2010;HOWE, 2009;JUNG;CHO, 2012;KILIC et al, 2010;KWAK et al, 2004;LOW et al, 2008;OK et al, 2014;PAGIN et al, 2013;SHAHBAZIAN et al, 2014;SHAHBAZIAN et al, 2015;MADJAR, 2006;FODICH;BORNSTEIN, 2014;YOSHIMINE et al, 2012) CHRISTIANSEN, 1992;GEORGESCU et al, 2012;HASSAN, 2010;KILIC et al, 2010;KWAK et al, 2004;LOW et al, 2008;OK et al, 2014;PAGIN et al, 2013;FODICH;BORNSTEIN, 2014;YOSHIMINE et al, 2012) estão sujeitos à característica em declive do ASM no sentido anteroposterior ou ao formato piramidal geralmente apresentado pelo SM (ANGELOPOULOS, 2008;FODICH;BORNSTEIN, 2014), e que mostra que o primeiro pré-molar é dentre os dentes posteriores o que menos se relaciona com o ASM.…”
