Objectives:
The goal of the study is to evaluate the prevalence and characteristics of soft
tissue calcifications (STCs) detected in the mandibular region in CBCT images.
Methods:
242 (150 female, 92 male) mandibula CBCT images were evaluated in this study.
Prevalence, anatomical location, pattern (bilateral or unilateral), size
(mm), number (single or multiple), age
(<35, 35-50, >50) and gender tendency were recorded. Images were
evaluated in the axial, coronal and 3D reformated images. The Chi-square test
was used to test for differences of the STC groups and the percentage
values.
Results: 88 patients (36.4%) had at least one STC in
the mandibular region. The mean age of the patients with STC was 58.3±11.06
years. No gender predilection was stated in terms of the presence of STC. STC
was higher in patients over 50 years than the other age groups (p=0.00). Most
of the STCs were unilateral, above 3mm in size, single and located in the
lingual aspect of the mandible.
Conclusion:
It is of vital importance for clinicians to know
characteristics of STCs and to detect STCs in early stages especially those
concerning systemic conditions and to prevent life-threatening consequences.
