Abstract

Objectives: Dental
morphological characteristics are useful for providing information in phylogenic
and genetic studies and also for understanding variations within and among
species. Carabelli cusp is expressed in several degrees and in different
frequencies among humans; thus, it is helpful in comparing and characterizing
populations. The objective of this retrospective study was to evaluate
Carabelli’s trait (CT) in a group of Turkish patients. Materials and Methods: In this study, 213
patients between age of 14-65 (mean age 29.99 ± 10.04) were analyzed
retrospectively according to presence or absence of CT on permanent maxillary
first and second molars. All data were statistically analyzed using the IBM
SPSS version 22 program (IBM SPSS, Turkey) and the chi-squared test; p < 0.05 was considered as
statistically significant. Results: Prevalence of CT was found to be 47.9% in the
selected Turkish group. Incidence of CT in any of the teeth on #16/26 was 46.9%
and 4.2% on #17/27. Incidence was detected more on #26 (43.2%) than on #16
(40.4%). Bilateral presence of CT on #16/26 was detected in 78%. CT was seen in
50.7% of females and in 42.9% of males. There was no statistically significant
difference between genders (p > 0.05). Conclusions: Expression of CT can be placed in moderate prevalence group. There was no
sexual dimorphism in its occurrence in the studied group.  CT can be a valuable criterion to determine differences
among various populations and a significant insight into the migratory patterns
in a selected geographical area.
