Abstract

Stylohyoid ligament ossification is a growth disorder that is often detected as an incidental finding on panoramic radiography. Its etiology and pathogenesis are still not fully understood. Eagle's Syndrome is related to stylohyoid ligament ossification, but this syndrome is often misdiagnosed or even undiagnosed so that the patients experience losses due to undergoing various unnecessary treatments. The appearance of stylohyoid ligament ossification on panoramic radiography can help to confirm the diagnosis of Eagle's Syndrome. Until now there has been no research regarding stylohyoid ligament ossification at RSGMP UNAIR. This study amied  to determine the incidence of stylohyoid ligament ossification that is observed through panoramic radiography at RSGMP UNAIR. This research is a descriptive observational study. The data used is secondary data from soft file panoramic radiographs of RSGMP UNAIR patients in the period May 2019-May 2023 which is in accordance with the sample inclusion criteria, as well as reading results by a dental radiology specialist. The data was then grouped based on gender, age, and morphology (unilateral/bilateral) and analyzed using the Cohen's Kappa Coefficient reliability statistical test. The results showed that 416 patients (9.09%) experienced stylohyoid ligament ossification. The highest distribution occurred in female with 260 patients (62.5%), the 25-64 years age group with 274 patients (65.86%) and the bilateral type with 341 patients (82%). From this study, the distribution data of stylohyoid ligament ossification based on gender, age, and morphology (unilateral/bilateral) were obtained.

Abstract

Tooth surface with early caries lesion can remineralize into sound tooth surface with early intervention. However, early caries lesion is difficult to detect and frequently goes unnoticed during clinical or radiographic examinations. Image quality enhancement through imaging tools such as filters has the potential to increase the accuracy of early caries lesion detection. To compare the accuracy of original radiographic images to enhanced images with filters on digital dental x-ray for detection of early caries lesions. Five working models were utilized, containing 42 sound tooth surfaces, and 36 surfaces with early caries lesions. Radiographic images were takenusing Vistascan storage phosphor plate system (Dürr Dental, Germany) and enhanced with Fine, Caries 1, Caries 2, and High Diagnostic (HD) filters. Original and enhanced radiographic images were assessed by three observers to record the presence or absence of early caries lesions. Sensitivity, specificity, and overall accuracy were calculated. Sensitivity of HD and Fine filter images were significantly higher (p < 0.05), but Caries 1 and Caries 2 images did not differ significantly from the original images (p > 0.05). There was no significant difference between the specificity of original filter images and filter enhanced images. The overall accuracy of original filter images and filter enhanced images increased significantly only on HD filter (p < 0.05). HD filter had significantly higher overall accuracy than the original images.In addition, it showed the highest sensitivity, specificity, and overall accuracy. Therefore, some filters may be used to enhance early caries lesion detection.
