Supernumerary teeth in premolar and molar area on CBCT: a pictorial review.

Objective: to build a descriptive classification of premolar and molar supernumerary teeth (ST) when preparing the cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) report. The aim is also to share wide range of CBCT images in the open access publishing model. Material and methods: For our review we systematically searched for articles from PubMed with 1) free full texts on ST in molar and premolar area and using CBCT, and 2) articles providing with information on complications related with the presence of ST in molar and premolar area. We also added to our review studies providing with classic ST classifications in premolar and molar area. Results: We found 29 cases of ST, and we freely illustrated them with 84 figures. We separated our pictorial review in: 1) unilateral ST in the mandible, 2) unilateral ST in the maxilla, 3) unilateral undersized ST, 4) bilateral ST, 5) ST with additional features, and 6) cases with major hyperdontia. Conclusions: we build up the classification matrix for premolar and molar ST with 11 descriptors and 50 boxes. The descriptors were: 1) location if the ST crown in axial view, 2) vertical location of the cusp tip in relation with closest erupted tooth in coronal view, 3) shape, 4) distribution, 5) Position (in relation to normal tooth eruption) in sagittal view, 6) State of eruption of the ST in the sagittal view, 7) Follicle size measurement in sagittal view, 8) External root resorption of adjacent teeth by ST and its location in relation to the long axis of the involved tooth, 9) Internal resorption of ST, 10) Adjacent tooth complication, and 11) Damage to surrounding structures if ST removal. The open access figures from the literature illustrated 11 boxes. With our pictorial review we were able to illustrate 45 out of 50 boxes, and freely provide the readership with the most complete description of ST in premolar and molar area on CBCT than in previously published studies.Objective: to build a descriptive classification of premolar and molar supernumerary teeth (ST) when preparing the cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) report.

Cone beam computed tomography in the diagnosis of Stafne bone cavity: Report of seven cases and review of the open-access literature.

Stafne bone cavity (SBC) is a rare entity to find on panoramic radiography and on cone beam computed tomography. We reviewed in a systematic way the open-access literature from PubMed and DOAJ. We also proposed a new methodology consisting of collaboration with private practitioners, application of participative science approach, and open science practices, and using social media tool to obtain and describe seven different cases of SBC. We finally propose a new matrix table for classification of anatomical types of SBC already described and those yet to be described in open-access literature.Stafne bone cavity (SBC) is a rare entity to find on panoramic radiography and on cone beam computed tomography.

Tomografia komputerowa wiązki stożkowej w diagnostyce ubytku kości Stafne'a: sprawozdanie z siedmiu przypadków i przegląd literatury otwartego dostępu.

Defekt Stafnego (Stafne's bone cavity - SBC) jest rzadko spotykany w radiografii pantomograficznej i stożkowej tomografii komputerowej. Dokonaliśmy systematycznego przeglądu literatury otwartego dostępu PubMed i DOAJ. Zaproponowaliśmy również nową metodologię polegającą na współpracy z prywatnymi praktykami, zastosowanie metody partycypacyjnego podejścia naukowego i praktyki otwartej nauki oraz wykorzystanie narzędzia mediów społecznościowych do uzyskania i opisania siedmiu różnych przypadków SBC. Proponujemy nową tabelę macierzową do klasyfikacji anatomicznych typów SBC już opisanych i tych, które jeszcze nie zostały opisane w ogólnodostępnej literaturze.Defekt Stafnego (Stafne's bone cavity - SBC) jest rzadko spotykany w radiografii pantomograficznej i stożkowej tomografii komputerowej.

Diagnostic value of cone beam computed tomography in complex and compound odontomas: a systematic review and open classification matrix

Objective: Firstly, this review aims to analyse the recent literature about three-dimensional (3D) diagnostic imaging in complex and compound odontomas and compare it to two-dimensional (2D) imaging. Panoramic radiographs help to evaluate the vertical position of odontomas, and occlusal radiographs are used to evaluate the proximity to adjacent teeth. However, cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) can offer volumetric images, and therefore, a more accurate three-dimensional analysis. Secondly, this research aims to construct an open classification matrix for complex and compound odontomas for dentomaxillofacial CBCT radiology protocols based on a systematic literature review. Material and methods: Two systematic literature searches were conducted in PubMed (Medline), on 2 February 2022 concerning classification systems, and on 5 February 2022 concerning CBCT images. Results: In total, these searches revealed 391 papers by reviewing the databases mentioned above. Six articles were selected for inclusion on classification of odontomas and 13 articles were found on CBCT imaging. Consequently, the construction of an open classification matrix for compound and complex odontomas for dentomaxillofacial CBCT radiology protocols was performed using these 19 articles. Conclusions: CBCT offers a more precise position and accurate diagnosis of complex and compound odontomas compared to 2D imaging. Consequently, it enhances the detailed view of the site (multiple or unique), location (intraosseous, partially or completely extragnathic), size, extension (bony expansion, thinning or perforation cortical bone), density and type (denticulo type, particle type, denticulo-particle type, denticulo-amorphous type, amorphous tissue), relationship (with the crown or root of the definitive tooth), adjacent teeth resorption (deciduous or definitive), adjacent teeth (retention or impaction), and distance with adjacent structures (inferior alveolar nerve, sinus maxillaris), as well as adequate surgical planning. Moreover, this research presents an open classification matrix for the most complete description of compound and complex odontomas when analysing CBCT imaging.  Objective: Firstly, this review aims to analyse the recent literature about three-dimensional (3D) diagnostic imaging in complex and compound odontomas and compare it to two-dimensional (2D) imaging.

Метою також є поширення значної кількості зображень КПКТ за моделлю відкритого доступу. Матеріали та методи: Для складання огляду ми провели пошук безкоштовних для перегляду повних статей на PubMed з інформацією про: 1)  КПКТ НКЗ у ділянці премолярів та молярів; 2) Ускладнення, пов’язані з наявністю НКЗ в ділянці молярів та премолярів. До огляду також були додані класифікації НКЗ в ділянці премолярів і молярів, представлені у інших дослідженнях. Результати: Нами було знайдено 29 клінічних випадків НКЗ, які ми проілюстрували 84-ма малюнками. Ми розділили наш ілюстративний огляд на: 1) Однобічні НКЗ на нижній щелепі; 2) Однобічні НКЗ на верхній щелепі; 3) Однобічні мікродонтичні НКЗ; 4) Двобічні НКЗ; 5) НКЗ з додатковими особливостями; 6) Випадки значної гіпердонтії. Висновки: Створено класифікаційну матрицю для НКЗ в ділянці премолярів і молярів з 11 дескрипторами та 50 блоками. Дескрипторами були: 1) розташування коронки НКЗ в аксіальній проєкції, 2) вертикальне розташування вершини горбка у відношенні до найближчого прорізаного зуба в корональній проєкції, 3) форма, 4) розподіл, 5) положення (у відношенні до положення нормально прорізаного зуба) в сагітальній проєкції, 6) Стан прорізування НКЗ в сагітальній проєкції, 7) Розмір фолікула в сагітальній проєкції, 8) Зовнішня резорбція коренів сусідніх зубів, спричинена НКЗ та його розташуванням у відношенні до довгої осі ураженого зуба, 9) внутрішня резорбція НКЗ, 10) ускладнення у сусідніх зубах, спричинені наявністю НКЗ, 11) ушкодження навколишніх анатомічних структур внаслідок видалення НКЗ. Малюнками з літератури, що знаходилася у відкритому доступі, було проілюстровано 11 блоків. У нашому ілюстративному огляді нам вдалося проілюструвати 45 з 50 блоків, і надати читачам вільний доступ до більш повного опису КПКТ НКЗ в ділянці премолярів та молярів, ніж у раніше опублікованих дослідженнях
