Abstract

Background: X-ray examinations are still a frequent diagnostic tool used by doctors in Indonesia. However, there is an apparent lack of descriptive data regarding the size and location of the maxillary sinus in Indonesian people. Objective: The aim of this study is to provide descriptive data on the size and location of the maxillary sinus among patients in the city of Bogor, West Java, Indonesia. Methods: Sixty eligible subjects aged 17 to 70 years old were randomized into six groups: male and female patients between 17 and 25 years old; male and female patients between 26 and 45 years old; and male and female patients aged 46 or older. Radiographic pictures were taken using the X-mind Novus Digital Panoramic X-ray unit and data were measured using the software Digora for Windows. Results: Using an analysis of variance, we found that men have significantly larger maxillary sinus dimensions than women (79.05 mm compared to 66.33 mm). It also reveals that there are significant differences (p<0.05) between male and female groups; whereas 2 groups aged less than 46 years old are significantly different with group aged 46 years or older in both gender. Conclusion: The study demonstrates that the size and location of maxillary sinus differ significantly between men and women in Bogor and that they follow a specific trend.

Abstract

Introduction: Dense Bone Island (DBI), or idiopathic osteosclerosis, is an asymptomatic radiopaque lesion often found incidentally during radiographic exams. Its etiology is linked to bone maturation, though not fully understood. The purpose of this report is to describe the radiographic identification of DBI in an elderly patient.Objective: To report a case of Type III and IV DBI in the mandible and discuss its radiographic differentiation from other pathologies.Case: A 62-year-old female patient underwent panoramic radiography, which revealed well-defined, homogeneous radiopaque lesions in the edentulous regions of teeth 37 and 47; while another radiopaque lesion was found at the apical region of tooth 44. The lesions were classified as Type III DBI as they were separate from any teeth or lamina dura and Type IV DBI since it was around root apex.Outcome: Accurate identification through panoramic imaging allowed for a definitive diagnosis without the need for invasive procedures.Conclusion: Panoramic radiography is an effective tool for identifying DBI, and recognizing its specific features is vital to avoid unnecessary interventions.
