본 연구는 전북대학교 치과병원 소아치과에서 2005년 1월부터 2011년 7월까지 6년 7개월 동안 촬영된 Cone beam형 전산화단층영상(CBCT)를 통해 소아치과 영역에서의 CBCT의 활용도를 평가하고자 한다.
1. CBCT 촬영 환자는 총 252명, 촬영횟수 279회였으며, 남자 151회(54.1%), 여자 128회(45.9%)였다.
2. 연령에 따라 9~12세 군 53%, 6~8세 군 24%, 그리고 13~15세 군이 15%였다.
3. 촬영 주소는 매복치의 위치 및 형태 확인 49.1%, 정중과잉치 19.4%, 과잉치 7.9%, 맹출 중인 치아의 위치 및 근관의형태 7.2%, 낭종 5.4%, 염증성 병소 3.9%, 치아종 3.9%, 그리고 종양이 2.2%를 보였다.
4. 치료 내용은 발치 29.7%, 교정적 정출 및 배열 24.0%, 정기 검진 16.5%, 타과 의뢰 11.5%, 근관 치료 3.9%, 조대술3.9%, 외과적 제거술 2.9%, 그리고 적출술이 1.1%를 보였다.
Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) has become widely available in recent years and is recognized as an important diagnostic tool for varies disease and condition of the orofacial structure. Clinician is easy to determine adequate treatment plan for pediatric patients by using CBCT.
CBCT is used in Chonbuk National University Dental Hospital since 2005. This research presents clinical application of CBCT on patients visiting department of pediatric dentistry in Chonbuk National University Dental Hospital from Jan, 2005 to July, 2011.
1. Total number of patients taken CBCT is 252, and total number of area taken CBCT is 279.
2. An age group form 9 years to 12 years showing 53% was highest and percentage of 6~8 years showed 24%.
3. Chief complaints for CBCT taking are position and shape of impacted teeth (49.1%), mesiodens (19.4%),supernumerary teeth (7.9%), position and root canal shape of erupting teeth (7.2%), cyst (5.4%), inflammatory lesion (3.9%), odontoma (3.9%), tumor (2.2%), and et al.
4. Treatments are extraction (29.7%), orthodontic traction and leveling (24.0%), follow up (16.5%), refer to other professional part (11.5%), endodontic treatment (3.9%), surgical removal (2.9%), malsupialization (3.9%), enucleation (1.1%), and fail to follow up (5.0%), and et al.
