Nezar Watted, Muhamad Abu-Hussein. Prevalence of Impacted Canines in Arab Population in Israel (original) (raw)

Clinical Study of Impacted Maxillary Canine in the Arab Population in Israel

The objective of the present study was to determine the prevalence of impacted maxillary canine in patients in Arabs Community in Israel (ARAB48,Israel) visiting our Center For Dentistry,Research & Aesthetics,Jatt,Almothalath,Israel, 4250 patients . This study comprises data from patients who attended the O.P.D.2200 patients between Jun. 2006 to Dec 2013. Patients were examined in order to detect the impacted maxillary canines by intraoral examination, palpation, dental records and followed by radiographs. It was found that the prevalence of canine impaction was 0,8 % (N=4250), 1,6 (N=2200), 43,9 (N-82) in males and 1,1% (N=4250), 2,1 (N=2200), 56,1 (N-82) in females suggesting that prevalence of impacted maxillary canines is more in females than males and it is statistically significant. The overall prevalence for maxillary impacted canines was found to be 3,7 % (N=2200) which suggested that it is much higher than previous studies. The results of this study were slightly different than other studies, while the dissimilarities may be attributed to the sample selection, method of the study and area of patient selection, which suggest racial and genetic differences.

The Prevalence of Impacted Maxillary Canines in a Palestinian Population: A Retrospective Study

Open Journal of Stomatology

Objective: This study aims to estimate the prevalence of impacted maxillary canines using panoramic radiographs. Methods: A sample of 1321 panoramic radiographs were retrospectively examined for the presence of impacted maxillary canines. The radiographs were obtained from the records of a private dental clinic from the year 2009 till 2016. Results: The prevalence of impacted canines among the examined population (n = 1321) was found to be 1.8%. There was a significant association between gender and canine impaction (P < 0.05), indicating that in the study population, the females had higher prevalence of canine impaction than males. Unilateral impaction accounted for 79% of the cases that showed at least one impacted maxillary canine while the bilateral impaction of the maxillary canines accounted for 20% of 24 cases that had at least one impacted maxillary canine. The results reveal significantly (P < 0.05) higher unilateral canine impaction compared to bilateral impaction. Fifty eight percent of the unilateral cases were on the right side while 42% were on the left side. No significant (P > 0.05) difference in the prevalence of right or left canine impaction was found. Conclusion: The prevalence of impacted maxillary canines (1.8%) in this study was within the range reported among other populations.

Prevalence and Severity of Ectopic Maxillary Canine Impaction in Southern Jordanian Population : A Radiographic Sector Analysis

Journal of the Royal Medical Services, 2017

Objectives: To determine the prevalence of impacted canines and severity of impaction in different age groups using sector analysis in South Jordan population. Methods: A total of 2700 digital panoramic radiographs with a total of 159 impacted canines were examined during this study and were selected according to specific inclusion criteria. The age of the patients ranged from 13 to 24 years, with a mean of 18.5 years. The selected digital panoramic radiographs were examined to determine the overall prevalence of impacted canines and their mesio-distal position of the tip (overlap) in relation to adjacent teeth. The panoramic radiograph was digitized and each impacted canine was placed in the correct category using sector classification that consists of six categories. Cases were divided into three age groups from 13-16 years, from 17-20 years and from 21-24 years. The impacted canine cases in both right and left sides were analyzed according to sector categories and age groups to e...

2021

Objective: To determine the prevalence of maxillary impacted canines in Egyptian population and its relativity to gender, location, and side distribution. Materials and methods: Retrospective cross-sectional study of 7730 digital panoramic radiographs collected from Alexandria city in Egypt. The sample was examined for the presence of maxillary impacted canines. The radiographs were selected from the records of several private dental clinics and the archive of a radiographic center. Results: Among the panoramic radiographs analyzed, 229 radiographs had at least one maxillary canine impaction with a prevalence of 2.96%. The percentage of impacted canines in males was 36.24% and in females was 63.76%. A higher number of impactions were seen unilaterally 82.1% than bilaterally 17.9%. Right side impactions (42.79%) were less common than left side impactions (75.1%) in relation to the total number of radiographs with canine impactions. When including the unilateral impactions only, right...

Prevalence Of Impacted Canines Among Dental Patients -A Retrospective Study

SciDoc Publishers, 2021

Impacted canines are those teeth which fail to erupt to their normal position in the arch and do not display any radiographic or clinical evidence of spontaneous eruption beyond chronological age. Maxillary canines are the third most common teeth to be impacted in the permanent dentition. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of impacted canines among dental patients. The retrospective study involved analysis of case records of patients with impacted canines and assessment was based on the following parameters: Age, gender, and quadrant of impaction. Using SPSS Version 20.0, categorical variables were expressed as frequency and percentage, continuous variables as mean and SD; and Chi-square test was used to determine the association between categorical variables. A p-value <0.05 was considered statistically significant.
