Abstract: (656 Views)
Background and purpose: Early diagnosis of jaw lesions is of great importance, especially in children. The aim of the present study was to investigate the frequency of jaw lesions in panoramic radiography of children (5-12 years old) in north of Iran.
Materials and methods: In this study, 1000 panoramic images of children attending oral radiology centers (2012-2019) in north of Iran were studied during one year. Information, including the age, gender, and presence or absence of any jaw lesion were extracted from the radiographic images of patients. Data analysis was carried out in SPSS V22 applying Chi-square.
Results: Out of 1000 panoramic images, 188 (18.8%) were found with jaw lesions. The mean age of children with these lesions was 8.64±2 years. Radiolucent lesions (in 185 images) were more frequent than radiopaque lesions.
Conclusion: Radiolucent lesions were more of periapical lesions.
