Öğe Comparison of the effectiveness of two different pain assessment methods in different orthodontic procedures(Kerman Univ Medical Sciences, 2024) Cigerim, Saadet Cinarsoy; Erhamza, Turkan Sezen; Bayzed, JamilBackground: This study compares two pain ratings that patients use to indicate how uncomfortable they are during bonding and the collection of orthodontic registration material. Methods: Two hundred people, ages eleven to twenty, participated in the study; 125 were female and 75 were male. The participants' discomfort levels were assessed during bonding operations and the initial registration material collection using the visual analog scale (VAS) and the facial pain scale (FPS). During the first registration material collection in oral photography, dental impressions, X-rays, bonding operations, lip retractor insertion, polishing, acid and sealing, and bracket application, pain levels were recorded. The Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the data between groups, while the Wilcoxon and Friedman tests were used to analyze the data within groups. The gathered data were statistically analyzed with a significance threshold of 5%. Results: There was a statistically significant positive correlation between the VAS and FPS scales when evaluating pain during intraoral photography, the dental impression procedure, X-rays, lip retractor insertion, polishing, acid and sealing, and bracket bonding (0.537< r < 0.734; P = 0.001). A statistically significant positive connection was also discovered when the gender difference was included (0.261 0.42; P= 0.001). Conclusion: Similar information was obtained during the orthodontic initial registration and bonding procedures using two different pain assessment instruments. It is also believed to make it possible to compare research using different pain scales.Öğe Evaluation of awareness and knowledge of orthodontic treatment among primary and secondary school students: A cross-sectional epidemiological school study(Scientific Scholar Llc, 2021) Cigerim, Saadet Cinarsoy; Erhamza, Turkan SezenObjectives: The aim of this cross-sectional research was to compare the knowledge and awareness of students in two different provinces of eastern and western Turkey about orthodontic treatment and to evaluate the awareness of orthodontic treatment among primary and secondary school students. Materials and Methods: A total of 2342 students between the ages of 7 and 15 were included in the study. The questionnaire consisted of a total of 30 questions, including questions about demographics and orthodontic treatment. 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th and, 8th-grade students were included in the study. The survey was conducted in selected schools in district centers of Van and Izmir. Results: The number of students participating in the study from Izmir was 855 (452 girls, 403 boys), and 1487 (724 boys, 763 girls) from Van. Female students' orthodontic awareness was higher than male students. There was also a statistically significant difference in the examinations conducted by cities. The students in Izmir were determined to be more conscious about orthodontic awareness in the majority of the questions in the survey. There were statistically significant differences between primary and secondary school students in terms of orthodontic awareness as a result of evaluating the primary and secondary schools separately. Secondary school students had a higher level of orthodontic awareness. Conclusion: Students' orthodontic awareness and deficiencies in this respect were determined. It was concluded that orthodontic awareness was affected by age group, gender, and socio-economic and socio-cultural structure of the city.Öğe Evaluation of changes in the maxillary sinus of orthodontic patients with maxillary molar distalization using cone-beam computed tomography(Mosby-Elsevier, 2023) Cigerim, Saadet Cinarsoy; Kaya, Sema; Cigerim, Levent; Erhamza, Turkan Sezen; Bayzed, JamilIntroduction: This study aimed to evaluate the possible effects of maxillary molar distalization on maxillary sinus mucosa thickness and sinus volume in 3-dimensions. Methods: The study was conducted with 46 patients: 73.9% (n = 34) females and 26.1% (n = 12) males. The patients had a mean age of 27.89 & PLUSMN; 6.62 years, ranging from 18 to 45 years. The study included patients who were admitted to the Faculty of Dentistry at Van Yueurozueuroncueuro Yil University between 2010 and 2021 and underwent cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) before and after orthodontic treatment for various reasons. The CBCT scans of patients were divided into 2 groups: the first group underwent orthodontic treatment and maxillary molar distalization with Class II elastic, whereas the second group consisted of patients who did not get orthodontic treatment (control). In CBCTs, sinus mucosa thickness was measured on the anterior, posterior, medial, lateral, superior, and inferior walls of the maxillary right and left sinuses. Three-dimensional volume calculations were made using CBCT images taken before and after the treatment of both orthodontic treatment patients and control patients. Statistical significance was set at P <0.05. Results: The orthodontic treatment group had a mean distalization of 2.86 & PLUSMN; 0.27 mm. The mean distalization time was 8.01 & PLUSMN; 0.64 months. When the differences between the pretreatment and posttreat-ment CBCT scans were examined in terms of sinus mucosa thickness in the anterior, posterior, medial, lateral, and superior walls of the right and left sinuses, there was no statistically significant difference between treatment and control groups (P >0.05). The change in sinus mucosa thickness in the right and left sinus inferior wall from T1 to T2 was significantly higher in the control group than treatment group (P <0.05). In addition, the increase in maxillary sinus volume was statistically significantly higher in the treatment group than in the control group (P <0.05). Conclusions: We observed that maxillary molar distalization caused an increase in maxillary sinus volume. The change in sinus mucosa thickness in the right and left sinus inferior wall was lower in the maxillary molar distalization group.

Material and Methods: In our multi-centered, cross-sectional retrospective study in which transversal measurements were made according to skeletal maturation stages (SMSs), posteroanterior radiographs of 572 individuals (292 female, 280 male) with skeletal and dental Class I relationships and good occlusion were examined at the age range of 7-18 years. SMSs were determined using Bjork, Grave and Brown hand-wrist radiography. A linear regression model was used for changes of transversal measurements between SMSs, and t-test was used to determine transverse changes between the genders. Results: There was no statistically significant difference between females and males in cranial, facial, and nasal width values up to SMSs. In maxillary, mandibular, maxillary intermolar, and mandibular intermolar width measurements, males had higher values in most stages of skeletal maturation compared to females. Apart from nasal width and maxillomandibular ratio values in females, the regression model in which transversal measurements were dependent variables, and SMS were independent variables was found to be significant. According to cumulative growth percentages, the growth completion in transversal measurements occurred earlier in females. Conclusion: Transversal measurements determined according to the stages of skeletal maturation can be a guide for orthodontists in the clinic to determine values that deviate from normal.
