Objective: The aim of this retrospective study was to comparatively evaluate
periapical lesions using the periapical index adapted for panoramic
radiography and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT-PAI).
Methods: The study group consisted of pre-existing panoramic radiographs
and CBCT records of 200 individuals (100 women and 100 men).
In this study, panoramic radiographs were evaluated using the PAI scoring
system, which uses a scale from 1 to 5 with an increasing radiographic
periapical status degree. CBCT images were evaluated using the CBCT-PAI
scoring system, which includes two additional variables that indicate any
possible expansion or destruction of the cortical bone. During statistical
evaluation, the relationship between PAI and CBCT-PAI was investigated by
Spearman’s rho correlation analysis.
Results: In our study, there was no significant difference between the
mean ages according to gender (p>0.05). Moreover, there was no significant
difference between the numbers of teeth with lesions according to
gender (p>0.05). A significant and positive correlation was found between
PAI and CBCT- PAI scores in all samples in coronal, sagittal, and axial planes
(p<0.01).
Conclusion: It was confirmed that CBCT provides more accurate information
about the extension and dimensions of periapical lesions.
