Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of condylar and coronoid process anomalies, their types, and their relationship to sex. Method: Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images were retrospectively analyzed for the presence and types of abnormalities in the condylar and coronoid processes. Statistical analysis of measurement data was performed using SPSS version 22. Medical histories of the individuals were obtained from their digital dental records. Results: CBCT images of 400 individuals were included in the study. Condylar anomalies were observed in 9.5% of cases, while coronoid anomalies were found in 7.5%. All condylar anomalies were more common in women and on the left side. Hypoplasia was the most common condylar anomaly, whereas hyperplasia was the most prevalent coronoid anomaly (6.8%). Coronoid anomalies were more frequent in males and were predominantly bilateral. Conclusion: Examining all subtypes of condylar and coronoid process anomalies in a large population without age or sex limitations will enhance dentists’ understanding of the prevalence and distribution of these anomalies in the region, aiding in better diagnosis and treatment planning.
