Vertical distortion plays an important role in determining the working length of endodontic treatment. The objective of this study was to determine the mean value of vertical distortion on the periapical radiographs of maxillary and mandibular teeth based on the measurement of the difference in the radiographic and actual size of the tooth length. The study was carried out on 120 samples of medical records, along with periapical radiographs of endodontic patients, divided into 60 samples of maxillary teeth and 60 samples of mandibular teeth. The measurement of clinical tooth length was obtained by using the value of actual working length plus 1 mm, as recorded in the patient's endodontic dental record data. The radiographic tooth length measurement was obtained using the patient's initial periapical radiograph. The value of vertical distortion was obtained by measuring the difference between the radiographic measurement and the clinical tooth length. Intraobserver and interobserver reliability tests were performed using the Intra Correlation Coefficient (ICC) test, and comparative analysis was performed using the Student T-test independent. The analysis showed that the mean vertical distortion in the maxillary teeth was 1.58 mm, with a maximum value of 5.53 mm. The mean value of vertical distortion in the mandibular teeth was 1.48 mm, with a maximum value of 3.96 mm. A total of 52 (43.33%) samples were elongated, 55 (45.83%) samples were shortened, and 13 (10.83%) samples were not distorted. This study's results indicate no statistical difference in vertical distortion between estimated clinical tooth length and tooth length measurements on the radiographs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
