This study sought to assess the internal anatomy of the maxillary sinuses and their septa using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in an Iranian population. Materials and Methods: Resorption of alveolar bone decreases the height of the maxillary alveolar ridge. This height reduction may be so severe that it warrants ridge augmentation by a sinus lift. Manipulation of the maxillary sinuses, as in sinus lift surgery, requires adequate knowledge about the sinus anatomy. Results: Maxillary sinus septum, as an anatomical variation, may complicate the surgical procedures and increase the risk of complications such as sinus membrane perforation. In this retrospective study, 366 sinuses, 190 from females and 176 from males, aged between 10 and 65 years old presenting to the Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology Department of School of Dentistry at Hamadan University of Medical Sciences were evaluated by two oral radiologists. The extension of the maxillary sinuses, presence of septa, number of septa and their location were determined. Data were analyzed using the chi square test (level of significance p≤0.001). The coefficient of agreement between the two oral radiologists was calculated based on Cohen kappa. Septa were present in 40.5% of the maxillary sinuses, out of which, 31.6% had one, 7.9% had two and 1% had three or more septa; 38% of the septa were horizontal while 62% had an oblique orientation. In total, 184 septa were found in 183 patients; out of which, 91 septa were 2 to 5 mm long while 93 septa were longer than 5mm. Conclusions: Comprehensive knowledge about the three-dimensional internal anatomy of the maxillary sinuses acquired by CBCT prior to surgical procedures can greatly help to prevent postoperative complications.

Research objective. The study aimed to evaluate cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) capabilities in diagnostics of cystic masses of the jaw.Methods. Over a period of 2015–2016 32 patients age 6 to 67 underwent both panoramic tomography and CBCT (using panoramic tomographic scanner STRATO 2000 and cone-beam computed tomographic scanner i-Cat respectively). 47% (n = 15) of the participants were women, 53% (n = 17) – men. Radiation exposure for a single procedure amounts to 0,05 mSv for panoramic tomography, 0,07 mSv for CBCT (FOV =13 cm), 0,06 mSv for CBCT (FOV =8 cm).Results. Comparative analysis of obtained results demonstrates that CBCT showed 54% (n = 27) more cystic masses of the jaws than panoramic radiography could. CBCT additionally showed the following pathologies: granulomas smaller than4 mm diameter – 85% (n = 23), 83% (n = 23) of said granulomas were found on maxilla, radicular cysts of maxilla – 11% (n = 3), incisive canal cyst – 4% (n = 1). Additionally panoramic tomography analysis misdiagnosed 5 granulomas (80% (n = 4) on mandibular premolar and molar areas) that were not found during CBCT analysis.Conclusion. The low effective dose and high informativity of CBCT enables the method to be used instead of intraoral radiography, panoramic tomography and MSCT as a screening procedure in diagnostics of dento-facial system pathologies, including cystic masses of the jaw.
