Özet
ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to investigate the bone area in the posterior region, which is important for mandibular molar distalization in skeletal class I and class III individuals with normodivergent and hyperdivergent vertical growth patterns.Materials and methodsIn this retrospective study, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans of 120 individuals divided into 4 groups as class I normodivergent (group-I), class I hyperdivergent (group-II), class III normodivergent (group-III), and class III hyperdivergent (group-IV). Retromolar area at crown level measurements was performed on CBCT-derived panoramic radiographs and axial sections. Retromolar area at the root level was measured 2 mm, 4 mm, 6 mm, 8 mm, and 10 mm apical to cemento-enamel junction at CBCT axial sections.ResultsRetromolar area decreased towards the root apex in all groups and smallest retromolar area was level of CEJ(10mm) in all groups. At any root level, the distal root of the mandibular second molar tooth was in contact with the mandibular inner or outer lingual cortex; 50% in group-I, 46.7% in group-II, 23% in group-III, and 23% in group-IV.ConclusionsIn normodivergent individuals, the retromolar area length at the root level is observed to be higher in class III than in class I at almost every level. In hyperdivergent individuals, on the other hand, only at CEJ(10mm) level, it is higher in length in class III than in class I. Vertical growth pattern has no effect on the root and crown level retromolar area in class I and class III individuals.
