Purpose: In the levels of implant treatment in the posterior region, determining the height of the bone has particular importance. The aim of the study was to compare the accuracy of linear bone height measurement for implant placement on panoramic view compared to CBCT in posterior jaw area.
Materials and Methods: The study was performed on 20 patients. In each of the posterior edentulous areas, a surgical guide for each patient was marked with gutta-percha (a total of 70 points). Panoramic radiographs and CBCTs were obtained from the patients and then the distance between the marked points in the maxilla to the maxillary sinus and in the mandible to the upper border of the alveolar canal was measured by Romaxis software and analyzed by Statistical software Stata 14. The obtained measurements of panoramic view were compared to CBCTs using t-test. P≤0.05 was considered significant.
Results: The mean difference between the sizes obtained from panoramic radiography and CBCT radiography in the maxilla was 0.34 mm (P = 0.57) and the mean difference between the sizes obtained from panoramic radiography and CBCT radiography in the mandible was 0.86 mm (P = 0.004).
Conclusion: According to the results of study, it is logical panoramic radiography just used to pre-assessment of implant procedures in posterior area of mandible were as it could be more reliable in maxilla.
