Summary |
Introduction |
The purpose of this study was to find a correlation between sella turcica bridging and the presence of a palatal impacted canine, using lateral cephalograms and CBCT.
Material and method |
We selected the lateral cephalograms and CBCTs of 60 patients meeting specific criteria. The radiographs were analysed to study the relationship between sella turca bridging and several factors. The presence or absence of a partial or total bridging was deducted by measuring the dimensions of the sella turcica and by using an accurate scoring system.
Results and conclusion |
Our study did not show any statistically significant association between sella turcica bridging as diagnosed on the lateral cephalogram and the CBCT images and the following factors: age, gender, facial type, skeletal class and the presence of an impacted canine. We found a significant difference for the classification of the sella turcica between these two radiographic methods.
