Amaç: ''Kissing
molarlar'' terimi, gömülü mandibuler ikinci ve üçüncü molar dişlerin, tek bir
foliküler alan içerisinde oklüzal yüzeylerinin temas halinde olduğu ve köklerin
ters yönlere doğru işaret ettiği nadir bir durumu tanımlamaktadır. Bu makalenin
amacı konik ışınlı bilgisayarlı tomografi ile değerlendirilmiş üç ayrı kissing
molar vakasını tanımlamak ve tedavilerini paylaşmaktır.
Materyal ve Metotlar: Vakaların
biri süpernümere diş ile ilişkiliyken ikinci vaka iki dişin oklüzal
yüzeylerinde ayrılmaya sebep olan bir dentigeröz kist ile ilişkiliydi. Üçüncü
vakada ise mandibuler anterior bölgede bulunan bir fibro-osseoz lezyon mevcuttu.
Sonuç: Kissing molar vakalarının çenelerde bulunabilecek diğer lezyonlar için
de incelenmesi gerektiği fikrindeyiz.
Objectives:
The term “kissing molars” refers to a rare entity in which impacted mandibular
second and third molars have contacting occlusal surfaces in a single
follicular space and roots are pointed in opposite directions. The aim of this
article is to describe three cases of mandibular kissing molars assessed
through cone-beam computerized tomography and their management.
Materials and Methods:
In one case the condition was associated with a supernumerary teeth. In the
other case the kissing molars were associated with a dentigerous cyst, which
disarticulated the two impacted teeth. The third case of kissing molars
involved a fibro-osseous lesion in the anterior mandibular region.
Result:
We are in the opinion that kissing molar cases should be further examined for other
lesions of the jaws.
