Abstract
The position of the labiopalatal canines on panoramic radiographs was correlated with the root resorption of permanent incisors when impacted maxillary canines were analyzed. A radiographic analysis was conducted on 63 maxillary canines affected by 63 individuals. A total of 73 mesiodistal cusp impacted canines were classified based on 63 panoramic radiographs. We evaluated the amount of root resorption in impacted canines and permanent incisors using CBCT. A comparison was made between sector locations on panoramic radiographs and labiopalatal positions in CBCT for impacted maxillary canines. To investigate the correlation between panoramic and CBCT images, we used two-fold t-tests and Fisher's exact tests. Abrasions of the labial bone are significantly more common in Panorama Sectors 1 and 2 than in Panorama Sectors 4, and Abrasions of the midalveolus are more prevalent in Panorama Sector 5. A correlation between the canine panoramic sector and labiopalatal position was statistically significant (p<0.001). Root resorption was significantly affected by sector 3, 4, and 5 location (p <0.001). A panoramic radiograph analysis allowed us to predict the resorption of permanent incisors based on the location of each sector
