PURPOSE The nasopalatine canal is a well-known, important anatomical structure in the anterior maxilla, but this region contains many accessory canals. The canalis sinuosus (CS) is one of these canals; it contains the anterior superior alveolar nerve, along with veins and arteries. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the CS using conebeam computed tomography (CBCT) in patients with maxill...

Introduction: Incisive foramen in the maxilla is the oral terminus of the nasopalatine canal. This region is important in implantology, Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the  neurovascular anatomical variations in the maxillary anterior region, observed on cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. Materials &Methods: In this cross-sectional study, maxillary CBCT ima...

INTRODUCTION The maxillary incisive canal connects the roof of the oral cavity with the floor of nasal cavity and has the incisive and nasal foramina respectively at its two opposite ends. Its close proximity with the anterior incisors affects one's ability to place immediate implants in ideal position. OBJECTIVE To avoid causing complication, variations in their dimensions were studied. MA...

Objective: To reveal the morphological and anatomical structure of nasopalatine canal (NPC) analyze its measurements via cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods: A total 246 CBCT images were included in study.) NPC diameter, length, angle, distance from IF to buccal bone (M1), NF (M2), middle (M3) measured. Statistical significance was assumed at p < 0.05. Results: There a significant ...

Abstract The anterior maxilla or premaxilla is part of the upper jaw and most significant content this region, from aspect orthodontic therapy, are incisor teeth. frequency complications during movement incisors refers to a more detailed evaluation anatomical structures premaxilla. aim study was investigate morphological morphometric characteristics by cone beam computed tomography, which could...

The nasopalatine cyst is the most common epithelial and nonodontogenic cyst of the maxilla. The cyst originates from epithelial remnants from the nasopalatine duct. The cells may be activated spontaneously during life or are eventually stimulated by the irritating action of various agents (infection, etc.). It is different from a radicular cyst. The definite diagnosis should be based on clinica...
