Why it matters for dental

Orthodontists and pediatric dentists who treat northeastern Anatolian children aged 6–14 may need to adjust normal-value references for condylar morphology when interpreting panoramic radiographs, because regional growth patterns can differ from established norms.

Key points

  • Study population: 6–14-year-old children and adolescents from northeastern Anatolia evaluated via digital panoramic radiographs.
  • Focus: quantitative assessment of mandibular condyle morphology.
  • Clinical implication: baseline data may refine diagnostic thresholds for temporomandibular disorders or asymmetric growth in this demographic.
