Abstract :ABSTRACT Background: In our study, we aimed to evaluate the distances between the roots of maxillary incisors and the nasopalatine canal and the floor of the nasal cavity, and the buccal cortical bone thickness at the apices of the roots of these teeth by Cone Beam Computed Tomography insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(CBCT); in children in the permanent dentition period. Materials and Methods: CBCT images of 49 patients aged 6-14 years were evaluated. In the sagittal plane, the distances of the apices of the maxillary central teeth with the nasopalatine canal and with the floor of the nasal cavity were evaluated. Buccal cortical bone thickness at the apex of the roots of maxillary anterior teeth was examined. These data were compared in terms of gender and whether the teeth had open or closed apices. Results: When the mean distance of the maxillary central teeth insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(11,21); to the nasopalatine canal was evaluated in terms of the open/closed apex status of the teeth and gender, there was no significant relationship insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p>0.05);. Among the maxillary anterior teeth insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(11, 21,12, 22);, the root apex of tooth 22 was the farthest from the floor of the nasal cavity and the root apex of tooth 12 was the closest. It was found that the mean buccal cortical bone thickness of maxillary anterior teeth 11 and 21 with open apex was significantly higher than those with closed apex insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.05);. Conclusions: The relationship of the maxillary anterior teeth with the anatomical structures in this region is important due to the frequent occurrence of traumatic dental injuries such as intrusion or lateral luxation, overflow filling during faulty root canal treatment, and apical surgery or implantation in this region.
