About this study

Official title: Detection of Correlation Between Facial Measurements and Tooth Size and Pulp Volume Using Cone Beam Computed Tomography

The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between the measurements of the specific points of the face (lower face height, midface height, the distance between zygomatic, pupillary distance,interalar distance, epicanthus distance, the distance between commissar) and the dimensions of the maxillary sixth molar tooth (mesiodistal distance, buccal palatal distance, root length, pulp volume).

Read the detailed description

Radiographic images of patients who have been indicated for cone-beam computed tomography for the upper jaw for various reasons (such as impacted teeth, sinusitis, skeletal anomalies) will be reviewed retrospectively. Facial measurements (lower face height, midface height, inter-zygomatic distance, inter-pupillary distance, interalar distance, epicanthus distance, the distance between commissures) of the patients who received cone beam computed tomography will be measured in the clinic. Mesiodistal distance, buccal palatal distance, root length, pulp volume of maxillary sixth tooth will be measured using cone beam computed tomography. The data obtained will be compared.

  • Facial Measurements and Tooth Size and Pulp VolumeDiagnostic test

    Radiographic images of patients who have been indicated for cone-beam computed tomography for the upper jaw for various reasons (such as impacted teeth, sinusitis, skeletal anomalies) will be reviewed retrospectively. Facial measurements (lower face height, midface height, inter-zygomatic distance, inter-pupillary distance, inter alar distance, epicanthus distance, the distance between commissures) of the patients who received cone beam computed tomography will be measured in the clinic. Mesiodistal distance, buccal palatal distance, root length, pulp volume of maxillary sixth tooth will be measured using cone beam computed tomography. The data obtained will be compared.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Height of inferior face

    Distance between subnasal and gnathion

    Measured: 5 minute

  2. Height of medium face

    Distance between glabella and subnasal

    Measured: 5 minute

  3. bizygomatic distance

    Distance from the most lateral parts of the arch of the zygomas

    Measured: 5 minute

  4. interpupillary distance

    Distance the center of the pupil of the right side to the center of the pupil of the left side

    Measured: 5 minute

  5. interalar distance

    Distance from ala of one side to other

    Measured: 5 minute

  6. Epicanthus distance

    Distance from inner palpebral fissures

    Measured: 5 minute

  7. Commissural distance

    Distance from commissar of the lips

    Measured: 5 minute

  8. Mesiobuccal root length

    distance from enamel cement border of the tooth to the mesial root apex

    Measured: 5 minute

  9. Distobuccal root length

    distance from enamel cement border of the tooth to the distal root apex

    Measured: 5 minute

  10. Palatal root length

    distance from enamel cement border of the tooth to the palatal root apex

    Measured: 5 minute

  11. Mesiodistal width

    Defined as the distance between two parallel planes, tangential to the most mesial and most distal points of the crown side

    Measured: 5 minute

  12. Buccal palatal width

    Defined as the maximum distance between two parallel planes, one tangential to the most palatal point of the crown side, and the other tangential to a point on the buccal crown side

    Measured: 5 minute

  13. Inter first molar distance

    The linear distance between right and left first molar teeth between the most convex palatal crown faces

    Measured: 5 minute

  14. Pulp volume

    Measured: 2 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cone-Beam Computed Tomography, run by Recep Tayyip Erdogan University Training and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Apr 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Fatma Pertek Hatipoğlu (5074283749, pertekk_165@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Height of inferior face (time frame: 5 minute). The study lists 14 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Apr 2020.
