The study investigates anatomical and demographic factors influencing implant planning in the maxillary first molar region.
Retrospective analysis of 798 cone-beam computed tomography images from 399 individuals.
Measurement of alveolar bone height and crest thickness from the alveolar crest to 2 mm coronal to the maxillary sinus.
Binary classification of buccal concavity, sinus septa, and sinus pathology presence.
Alveolar bone height and crest thickness were significantly greater in dentate sites compared to edentulous sites (p < 0.05).
Age significantly influenced crest thickness, buccal concavity, sinus septa, and sinus pathology (p < 0.05).
Tooth presence correlated with concavity and sinus pathology; gender correlated with sinus pathology; jaw side correlated with sinus septa (p < 0.05).
