| Popis: | Purpose This study is aimed at understanding the effects of maxillary first molar extraction on the expansion of maxillary sinus in children. Subjects and methods 119 patients (aged 11-17 years) who had only one extracted maxillary first molar were included in the study. The superoinferior differences of the sinus floor position were measured in both dentate and edentulous sites on panoramic radiographs. The expansion of the maxillary sinus after maxillary first molar extraction was investigated in relation to fixed anatomic structures. The interorbital line (IL) and two zygomatic process lines (IZ) were used as a reference. The vertical distances between the IL and the inferior border of the maxillary sinus (IS) in edentulous (ISX) and in dentate sites (IST) were measured. The data was analyzed statistically. Results The amount of maxillary sinus expansion in ISX was statistically significant in comparison to IST (p |
