Assessment of Relationship Between Maxillary Sinus Floor and Maxillary Posterior Teeth Root Tips Position

NCT04903418 | Unknown

• 1 other identifier: MSF-Max. Post. teeth root tips
• Study Type: observational
• Target: 132
• Locations: 0 countries
• Sites: N/A

Brief Summary

There have been no cross-sectional studies conducted on the Egyptian population studying the relationship between maxillary sinus floor and the maxillary posterior root tips position using CBCT, and whether the maxillary sinus mucosal thickening is associated with periapical lesions as well as periodontal disease. Such study will raise the diagnostic and interpretational abilities of dental radiologists and decision making of oral surgeons and endodontists.

Conditions

Maxillary Sinusitis

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• using CBCT software in measurement the Relationship between maxillary sinus floor and root tips position of maxillary premolars versus maxillary molars

  Numerical data (quantitative data)

  through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• The association between presence of periapical lesions and maxillary sinus mucosal thickening

  through study completion, an average of 1 year

Other Outcomes (1)

• The association between presence of periodontal disease and maxillary sinus mucosal thickening

  through study completion, an average of 1 year

Interventions

CBCT software DEVICE

* Retrospective Data Analysis will be performed after the CBCT images are pooled from the computer database. * All the CBCT examinations will be obtained for patients who were scanned using CBCT Software (Planmeca Romexis® Viewer software). * CBCT images will be analysed in different planes.

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 20 Years - 70 Years
• Sex: all
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

The CBCT data of this study will be obtained from the CBCT data base available at the department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology, Faculty of Dentistry, Cairo University, Cairo, Egypt. Being a retrospective study, CBCT scans of Egyptian patients who have already been subjected to CBCT examination as part of their dental diagnosis and/or treatment planning will be included according to the proposed eligibility criteria.

You may qualify if:

• CBCT scans for patients aged from 20 to 70 years.
• CBCT scans for patients with at least first and second maxillary premolars and first and secon maxillary molars present on one side (fully erupted teeth and fully formed apices).
• CBCT scans taken for pre-evaluation of endodontic treatment, implant placement, impacted teeth removal, obstructive sleep apnea treatment, pre-orthodontic or pre-prosthetic evaluation.
• Good quality CBCT scans.

You may not qualify if:

• CBCT scans for patients with no maxillary posterior teeth.
• CBCT scans for patients with history of maxillary sinus operation (including sinus floor elevation).
• CBCT scans for patients with sign or history of non-odontogenic sinusitis, including air-fluid level, thickening of all the sinus walls and maxillary sinus polyps.
• CBCT scans for patients with syndromes, congenital or developmental anomalies.
• CBCT scans for patients with bone disease.
• CBCT scans for patients with traumatic injuries to the maxillofacial region.
• Low quality CBCT scans (any artifact).
