Background: The anatomical proximity between the root apex of the maxillary posterior teeth and the maxillary sinus can lead to complications, including odontogenic maxillary sinusitis. While several studies have investigated similar variables in different populations, there is limited research on the Indonesian population. This study aimed to describe the anatomical position of the maxillary posterior teeth in relation to the floor of the maxillary sinus using CT scans. Methods: A total of 122 patients (432 maxillary premolars and 1,282 maxillary molars) underwent CT scans to evaluate 1,711 roots. The vertical relationship between the root apex of the maxillary posterior teeth and the maxillary sinus was classified into three types: IS (inside sinus), CO (sinus contact), and OS (outside sinus). Results: The IS type was predominantly found in the palatal roots of the first molars, accounting for 20% of the total roots in this type. The CO type was most frequently observed in the mesiobuccal roots of the second molars, representing 18% of the total roots in this type. The OS type was most commonly found in the first premolar, comprising 20% of the total roots in this type. Conclusions: The palatal roots of the first molars exhibited the highest frequency of proximity to the maxillary sinus. CT scans can effectively assess the relationship between the root apex of the posterior teeth and the maxillary sinus. Clinical Relevance: Clinicians should consider this information comprehensively when planning treatments for maxillary molars. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
