Abstract

Objectives: the purpose of the study was toanalyze the frequency, characteristics and associated complications of mesiodens in a groupof patients in Turkey.Materials and Methods: The present studyincluded 3782 patients (1590 male, 2192 female),who attended the Department of MaxillofacialRadiology, Faculty of Dentistry, Erciyes Universityfor their dental problems. Panoramic radiographsroutinely obtained during dental examinationsserved as the study basis for detection of theprevalence of mesiodens. In the case of mesiodensdetection additional occlusal radiographs wereobtained from the patients. In addition to age andgender, descriptive characteristics of meziodens,including number, shape, position, complicationcaused by mesiodens were recorded.Results: The prevalence of mesiodens in thepresent study was 2.7% (3.9% male, 1.8% female).The sex ratio was 2.17:1, favoring boys, the ratiowas statistically significant (p<0.001).The majorityof the mesiodens (50%) were conical in shape. Amajority of the mesiodens (62.1%) were verticallyaligned. Inverted and horizontally positions wereobserved in 20.2% and 16.1% of the cases. 17patients had two, and two patients had more thantwo mesiodens. Most of the mesiodens (58.1%)were associated with complications and only 41.9%were asymptomatic.Conclusions: The prevalence of mesiodens wasfound to be high comparable to similar studies inthe literature. The majority of the mesiodens wereimpacted and thus, in case of retention or delayederuption, dentists should bear in mind thatmesiodens may be the cause and early detection andtimely surgical intervention should be kept in mindto avoid unwanted complications.

Objectives: the purpose of the study was to analyze the frequency, characteristics and associated complications of mesiodens in a group of patients in Turkey.

Materials and Methods: The present study included 3782 patients (1590 male, 2192 female), who attended the Department of Maxillofacial Radiology, Faculty of Dentistry, Erciyes University for their dental problems. Panoramic radiographs routinely obtained during dental examinations served as the study basis for detection of the prevalence of mesiodens. In the case of mesiodens detection additional occlusal radiographs were obtained from the patients. In addition to age and gender, descriptive characteristics of meziodens, including number, shape, position, complication caused by mesiodens were recorded.

Results: The prevalence of mesiodens in the present study was 2.7% (3.9% male, 1.8% female). The sex ratio was 2.17:1, favoring boys, the ratio was statistically significant (p<0.001).The majority of the mesiodens (50%) were conical in shape. A majority of the mesiodens (62.1%) were vertically aligned. Inverted and horizontally positions were observed in 20.2% and 16.1% of the cases. 17 patients had two, and two patients had more than two mesiodens. Most of the mesiodens (58.1%) were associated with complications and only 41.9% were asymptomatic.

Conclusions: The prevalence of mesiodens was found to be high comparable to similar studies in the literature. The majority of the mesiodens were impacted and thus, in case of retention or delayed eruption, dentists should bear in mind that mesiodens may be the cause and early detection and timely surgical intervention should be kept in mind to avoid unwanted complications.

ÖZET

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı bir grup Türk populasyonunda görülen meziodenslerin sıklığı, özellikleri ve meziodens dişlerle ilişkili komplikasyonların araştırılmasıdır.

Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışmada çeşitli dental problemleri nedeniyle Erciyes Üniversitesi, Dişhekimliği Fakültesi, Ağız Diş ve Çene Radyolojisi Anabilim Dalına başvuran, 3782 hastanın (1590 erkek, 2192 kadın) rutin dental muayene nedeniyle alınan panoromik radyografları ve klinik verileri değerlendirilmiştir. Radyograflarında meziodens saptanan hastalardan dişlerin lokalizasyonu ve meydana getirdikleri komplikasyonların değerlendirilmesi için okluzal radyografiler alınmıştır. Meziodens saptanan hastaların yaşları ve cinsiyetleri yanı sıra, dişlerin sayısı, şekli, pozisyonları ve meydana getirdikleri komplikasyonlar kaydedilmiştir.

Bulgular: Meziodens görülme sıklığı cinsiyetler arası istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmuştur (erkek/kadın oranı 2.17:1 olarak bulunmuştur p<0.001). Meziodenslerin çoğunluğunun konik şekilli(%50) ve vertikal pozisyonda olduğu (% 62,1) olduğu saptanmıştır. Dişlerin %20,2 sinin inverted ve % 16,1 sının horizontal pozisyonda olduğu görülmüştür. 17 hastada iki, iki hastada ikiden çok meziodens görülmüştür. Meziodenslerin çoğu (%58,1) komplikasyona yol açarken % 41,9’u komplikasyona yol açmamaktadır.

Sonuç: Çalışmamızda meziodens prevelansı literatürdeki diğer çalışmalarla uyumlu bulunmuştur. Meziodenslerin büyük bir çoğunluğu gömülü oldukları için dişhekimleri intraoral muayene sırasında diş sürmesinde gecikme veya retansiyonla karşılaştıklarında meziodensleri de hatırlamalıdırlar. Erken tanı ile gecikme olmadan yapılan cerrahi tedaviler ile istenmeyen komplikasyonlar önlenebilmektedir.
