ABSTRACT
This study proposes to measure and compare anthropometric measurements between toothed and toothless maxillas. 26 human skulls were used with 13 toothed and 13 toothless maxillas. The measurements were made between the distances of the alveolar ridge (AR) the anterior nasal spine (ANS), to the incisive foramen (FI) and the palatine foramen, greater (FPMA) and lower (FPME) on both sides by two evaluators. The data obtained showed that the average of the measurements were correspondingly higher in toothed maxillas than in toothless, for all measurements in any one of the evaluators. The AR-ANS (p = 0.001), IF-AR (p = 0.006), AR-FPMA right (p = 0.001) and AR-FPMA left (p <0.001) and AR-FPME on both sides (p = 0.001) demonstrating significant differences between the two types of maxilla. Thus we verify that, as the tooth loss occurs, irreversible anatomical changes take place in the maxilla bone, which must be taken into account in the design and manufacture of prostheses and osseointegrated implants...
RESUMEN
Este estudio propuso medir y comparar las medidas antropométricas entre los maxilares con y sin dientes. Fueron utilizados 26 cráneos humanos, 13 maxilares con dientes y 13 sin dientes. Las mediciones fueron realizadas a ambos lados por dos evaluadores entre las distancias del reborde alveolar (RA) a la espina nasal anterior (ENA), al canal incisivo (CI) y a lo foraámenes palatinos mayor (FPMA) y menor (FPME). Los datos mostraron que la media de las mediciones fueron proporcionalmente mayores en las maxilas con dientes, para todas las mediciones en cualquiera de los evaluadores. El RA-ENA (p = 0,001), AR-CI (p = 0,006), RA-APMA derecho (p = 0,001) y RA-APMA izquierdo (p <0,001) y RA-APME en ambos lados (p = 0,001), comprobando la existencia de diferencias significativas entre los dos tipos de maxila. Fue verificado que a partir de la pérdida dental ocurren irreversibles cambios anatómicos en el maxilar, que deben ser considerados en el diseño y fabricación de prótesis e implantes osteointegrados...
