    EVALUATION OF ANATOMICAL VARIATIONS OF NASAL CAVITY AND PARANASAL SINUSES WITH CONE BEAM COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY
    (Nobel Ilac, 2017) Dedeoglu, Numan; Altun, Oguzhan; Bilge, Osman Murat; Sumbullu, Muhammed Akif
    Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate anatomical variations of nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), which is currently used in dentistry radiology. Material and Method: In this study, 251 patients' nasal cavities and paranasal sinuses were evaluated using CBCT (Newtom 5G, Verona Italy) images in terms of anatomical variations. The high-resolution (voxel and slice thickness: 0.2 mm) multiplanar reformatting images (MPR) were used for the evaluation of the variations. Results: The most common anatomical variation of nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses found in this study was agger nasi cell (95.6%). The most rarely observed variation was sphenoid sinus aplasia (0.8%). There was no statistically significant relationship between concha bullosa and nasal septum deviation. Conclusion: CBCT is a preferred alternative and reliable method for evaluation of anatomical variations of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses.

    Morphometric and Morphologic Evaluation of the Mental Foramen in Relation to Age and Sex: An Anatomic Cone Beam Computed Tomography Study
    (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2014) Caglayan, Fatma; Sumbullu, Muhammed Akif; Akgul, Hayati Murat; Altun, Oguzhan
    Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the vertical and horizontal position, angle, and diameter of the mental foramen (MF) according to sex and age by cone beam computed tomography in a Turkish patient population. Methods: Cone beam computed tomography records of 192 consecutive patients consisting of 106 women and 86 men were examined, retrospectively. The vertical and horizontal positions of MF, angle and diameter of MF, and distance from MF to the alveolar crest and the base of the mandible were evaluated with respect to sex and age groups. Results: There were statistically significant differences in the distance of MF to the alveolar crest according to age groups. When we compared the right and left sides, we have only found out statistically significant differences in the angles of MF and that it was higher in the left side. Conclusions: From our results, the detection of the position of MF can provide detailed information for preoperative treatment planning (for surgery and dental implant surgery procedures), especially in the mandibular premolar region.

    Oral findings in children with celiac disease
    (Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2012) Ertekin, Vildan; Sumbullu, Muhammed Akif; Tosun, Mahya Sultan; Selimoglu, Mukadder Ayse; Kara, Mustafa; Kilic, Nihat
    Aim: To investigate whether Turkish children with celiac disease (CD) show dental enamel defects (DEDs), recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS), teeth missing, and xerostomia, and to compare the results with age- and sex-matched healthy children. Materials and methods: The oral cavity was explored in 81 patients with CD (mean age 8.7 +/- 3.7 years; age range 2.5 to 17 years) and in 20 healthy controls. Enamel defects, teeth missing, RAS, and xerostomia were established. Results: Forty-three (53.1%) celiac patients and 5 (25%) control subjects had enamel defects. Enamel defects occurred more frequently in patients (P = 0.025) compared to controls. Regarding RAS, 39 (48.1%) patients and 1 (5%) control had aphthous ulcers (P = 0.0001). Teeth missing and xerostomia were detected in 11(13.6%) and 47 (58%) patients, respectively. Patients with xerostomia were significantly greater in number compared to healthy children (P = 0.008). In the present study, the prevalence of DEDs, RAS, and xerostomia was greater in celiac patients than in healthy controls. Conclusion: Early recognition of children with specific DEDs, RAS, and xerostomia and thus their referral to pediatricians might help in early diagnosis of CD.
