Özet

AIM or PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to evaluate the morphometry of the frontal sinuses and compare it with the nasal, maxillary, cranial and the mandible widths, as well as their relationship with age, sex, and side. MATERIALS and METHOD The randomly selected 208 patients aged from 20 to 85 years were analysed. The measurements of mesio-distal, antero-posterior, and supero-inferior dimension of frontal sinus, cranial width, nasal width, maxillary width, and mandibular width were examined using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Statistical analyses were performed using Kolmogorov–Smirnov, paired sample t test, Oneway ANOVA test, Student's t-test. P values < 0.05 were accepted as statistically significant. RESULTS In all parameters, the average values of males were statistically significantly higher than those of females (p<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the mesio-distal, antero-posterior, and supero-inferior frontal sinus measurement between the right and left sides in all cases (p>0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in terms of total anterioposterior measurement among age groups (p<0.05). CONCLUSION(S) This study revealed that the measurements of frontal sinuses and other cranial parametres can be useful in sex determination using CBCT.
