Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of histological abnormalities in soft tissues surrounding impacted third molars that did not exhibit pathologic pericoronal radiolucency. Material and Methods: The pericoronal tissue associated with completely impacted third molars was submitted for histologic examination after surgical tooth removal was performed in 21 males and 52 females, aged 16 to 44 years. The 73 impacted third molars comprised 65 mandibular third molars (89%) and 8 maxillary third molars (11%). Results: Of 73 specimens submitted for histologic examination, 20.5% were diagnosed as being dental follicle and 79:5% (dentigerous cyst, 54.8%; chronic nonspecific inflammatory tissue, 24.7%) were diagnosed as having a pathologic condition. No disease other than dentigerous cyst and chronic nonspecific inflammatory tissue was seen. Conclusion: These findings suggest that radiographic appearance may not be a reliable indicator of the absence of disease within a dental follicle. We conclude that the incidence of soft tissue pathologic conditions is higher than generally assumed from radiographic examination alone.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, patolojik perikronal radyolüsen-si göstermeyen gömülü üçüncü molar dişlerin perikronal dokularının histolojik olarak değerlendirilmesidir. Birey ve Yöntem: Yaşları 16-44 arasında olan, 21 erkek ve 52 İcadın hastadan çekilen gömülü üçüncü molar dişlerin perikronal dokuları histolojik olarak incelendi. Toplanı 73 gömülü üçüncü molar dişten 65 tanesi (%89) mandibular üçüncü molar diş ve 8 tanesi (%11) maksi! ler üçüncü molar diştir. Bulgular: Histolojik incelemesi yapılan 73 örnekten %20.5'i dental folikül, %79.5'i (dentigeröz kist %54.8; kronik noııspe-sifik inflamatuar doku %24.7) ise patolojik bir durum olarak belirlenmiştir. Dentigeröz kist ve kronik nonspesifik inflamatu-av doku dışında başka bir patolojik duruma rastlanılmamıştır. Sonuç: Bulgular radyografik görüntünün, dental folikül içinde herhangi bir patolojik durumun olmadığının güvenilir bir göstergesi olamayabileceğini göstermektedir. Yumuşak doku patolojik durum insidansının, sadece radyografik inceleme ile var sanılandan daha yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir.
