Abstract:

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to take the utility of a three-dimensional CBCT view and determine the sexual dimorphism in the trabecular pattern/type in maxilla-mandibular region. METHODOLOGY: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2022-2023 on 417 subjects (age limit 18- 80 years) at the Radiology Department of Sardar Begum Dental College and Khyber College of Dentistry. CBCT was used to determine the sexual dimorphism in the trabecular pattern in maxilla-mandibular region. Frequency/percentages were calculated for numerical data using descriptive statistics (version 20.0IBM.SPSS). The chi-square test was used for all the categorical variables. The level of significance was (P value?0.05) for six categories of decade age sub-groups, between both genders. RESULTS: The overall trabecular pattern of the mandible was principally Type A with dense trabecular pattern. The trabecular pattern of the maxilla was mainly a Type C/ fine pattern (n=240, 57.4%) followed by the Type B/ mixed pattern (n=174, 41.6%). CONCLUSION: Type I /A pattern of trabecular in mandible and Type II/B pattern of trabecula. In maxillary bone with statistically significant difference between both genders proves the existence of sexual dimorphism in the population of KPK.
