Background: Due to certain situations, the front maxilla needs to be carefully taken into account while designing dental implant placements. The present study was conducted to assess the maxillary anterior region for dental implant insertion. Materials & Methods: 58 patients requiring dental implants in maxillary anterior teeth region underwent CBCT scan. Bone height, width and undercut was measured. Results: Out of 58 patients, males were 30 and females were 28. The mean height in central incisor region was 18.2 mm, in lateral incisor was 17.4 mm and in canine region was 21.6 mm. The mean width in central incisor region was 8.4 mm, in lateral incisor was 8.2 mm and in canine region was 9.6 mm. The difference was significant (P< 0.05). The mean buccal undercut location at central incisor was 5.7 mm, at lateral incisor was 3.8 mm and at canine was 5.2 mm. Buccal undercut depth at central incisor was 0.81 mm, at lateral incisor was 0.84 mm and at canine was 0.76 mm. The difference was significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: The greatest breadth and height were observed in canine. With the central incisor, the maximum buccal undercut was observed. |
