Popis: | OBJECTIVE Lateral cephalograms (LC) should be usable to evaluate the vertical bone height of the anterior maxilla for planning the placement of orthodontic mini-implants (OMI). The purpose of this study is to determine the usability of LC for examining the real vertical dimension of the anterior palate. SETTING AND SAMPLE POPULATION Lateral cephalograms and corresponding cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans were employed for examining 30 fresh cadaver heads. MATERIALS & METHODS The minimum (distance A) and maximum (distance B) vertical palatal bone heights on LCs at the level of first premolars were measured, whereas the corresponding measurements were taken via CBCTs on the median, and 2-, 4- and 6-mm paramedian planes. Additionally, the overall minimum vertical palatal height on CBCT was recorded. RESULTS Distance A and B on LC were about 8.3 ± 2.5 mm and 9.9 ± 2.5 mm, respectively. The median palatal height on CBCT was significantly higher than both measurements on LC (P |
