Özet
Objectives: The maxillary sinuses are important anatomical structures for dental procedures in dentistry. The normal function of the sinuses is effective in the success of these dental procedures. The continuation of the normal functions of the paranasal sinuses, the maxillary and osteomeatal complex (OMC) has an important role. In this study, we aimed to investigate the frequency of osteomeatal complex anatomic variations with cone-beam computed tomography. Material and Methods: In this retrospective study, in cone-beam computed topographies of 280 patients (154 men, 126 women), anatomic variations of paranasal sinuses (deviated septum, inferior turbinate hypertrophy, concha bullosa, paradoxical middle turbinate, Agger nasi, Haller's cell, Onodi cell, pneumatized uncinate process (uncinate bulla), pneumatized crista galli, pneumatized septum) were analyzed. Results: In our study, septal deviation 85%; inferior turbinate hypertrophy 48.6%; middle concha bullosa 40%; Agger nasi cells 28.6%; Haller's cells 9.6%; pneumatized septum 4.6%; paradoxical middle turbinate 2.5%; pneumatized uncinate process 2.5%; pneumatized crista galli 1.4%; Onodi %1.1 were found. Conclusion: Variations of the osteomeatal complex due to the effect of the paranasal sinuses should be considered in maxillary dental implant planning.
