Since the presence of torus poses a problem in successful construction of dentures, a study was carried out to determine the prevalence of Torus Palatinus and Torus Mandibularis in 1000 patients, which was 9.5% and 1.4% respectively. The prevalence of Torus palatinus was more common in female than males. Majority of the tori were found in the age group of 11 to 30 yrs and were rarely seen before 10 yrs of age. The most common region was the middle of the palate as well as mandible. It is emphasized that presence of torus should be carefully evaluated and construction of denture be modified accordingly.
由于腭隆突的存在给义齿的成功制作带来问题，因此开展了一项研究，以确定1000名患者中腭隆突和下颌隆突的患病率，分别为9.5%和1.4%。腭隆突在女性中的患病率高于男性。大多数隆突见于11至30岁年龄组，10岁以前很少见。最常见的部位是腭中部以及下颌。需要强调的是，应仔细评估隆突的存在情况，并相应地修改义齿制作方案。
