Aim: To assess the relations between the divergence angle of the maxillary molar roots and their proximity to the maxillary sinus floor using CBCT. Method: This study comprised CBCT scans of the maxilla, including at least the inferior one-third of the maxillary sinus and at least one molar present in any quadrant with complete eruption and root formation. Evaluation included the vertical relations between the maxillary molar root apices and the maxillary sinus floor (MSF), and the root divergence was measured from the root apices to the floor of the pulp chamber. The chi-square test was used for the associations between the study parameters. For the correlation between root divergence angles and MSF vertical relationship types, the Spearman test was used. A P-value 45⁰ angle groups, and a higher prevalence of the Type I relationship was found in the 21-45⁰ angle group. For the distobuccal-palatal angle groups, higher percentages of the MSF Type II relationship were found in the three angle groups. For all teeth, there was a significant positive correlation between the MSF vertical relationship and the mesiobuccal-palatal angle (r = 0.116; P = 0.039). Conclusion: There was a positive correlation between the divergence angle of the roots and their vertical relationship with the MSF. Clinicians should assess the divergence between the roots before performing extraction or endodontic treatments. |
