This study aimed to analyze the inter-molar width and skeletal base class to predict maxillary canine impaction in permanent dentition. This cross-sectional study was carried out between September 2021 to March 2022. Patients aged between 13 and 20 years were recruited. These patients' cone-beam computer tomography(CBCT), lateral cephalogram, and dental casts were collected and analyzed. For statistical analysis, -test and Chi-square tests were applied. A total of 92 patients were enrolled in this study. Inter-molar width was significantly decreased in patients with impacted canine( < .001). The skeletal base classification was statistically significant when compare with intermolar width( < .05). The location of impaction ( = .060), type of impaction( = .435), and side of impaction( = .239) were determined to be statistically insignificant. The Inter-molar width was decreased in patients with impacted canine; therefore, it may be a potential risk factor. The skeletal classification was found to affect inter-molar width in impacted canine patients.
本研究旨在分析磨牙间宽度和骨骼基类，以预测恒牙列上颌尖牙阻生情况。本横断面研究于2021年9月至2022年3月进行。招募了年龄在13至20岁之间的患者。收集并分析了这些患者的锥形束计算机断层扫描（CBCT）、头颅侧位片和牙模。进行统计分析时，应用了t检验和卡方检验。本研究共纳入92例患者。阻生尖牙患者的磨牙间宽度显著降低（P＜0.001）。与磨牙间宽度相比，骨骼基类具有统计学意义（P＜0.05）。阻生位置（P = 0.060）、阻生类型（P = 0.435）和阻生侧（P = 0.239）经判定无统计学意义。阻生尖牙患者的磨牙间宽度减小；因此，它可能是一个潜在的风险因素。研究发现骨骼分类会影响阻生尖牙患者的磨牙间宽度。
