This study aimed to assess the alveolar bone height of anterior teeth in patients with bimaxillary protrusion. A total of 130 Vietnamese adults diagnosed with bimaxillary protrusion participated, with a mean age of 22.8 years. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images were utilized to scan the twelve lower and upper anterior teeth, and the alveolar bone height was measured from the cementoenamel junction to the alveolar crest on both the buccal and lingual aspects, parallel to the tooth's long axis. Significant differences in alveolar bone height were observed between the lingual and labial sides of the lower anterior teeth (p < 0.001). No statistically significant differences in alveolar bone height were found between males and females with bimaxillary protrusion (p > 0.05). Moreover, no significant differences were detected in the alveolar bone height of the lateral incisors and canines between the hyper-divergent and normo-divergent groups (p > 0.05). In conclusion, this study revealed that the lower incisors exhibited a greater alveolar bone height on the lingual side compared to the labial side. Additionally, no significant distinctions were found in alveolar bone height between males and females. Furthermore, there were no notable differences in alveolar bone height of the lateral incisors and canines between the hyper-divergent and normo-divergent groups. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
