Özet:

The purpose is to investigate the frequency of buried the second molar teeth observed in the subgroup of the Turkish society. Instruments and Methods: From January to June 2018, the PRs of patients taking a panoramic radiograph (PR) for various reasons at the University of Süleyman Demirel Oral Tooth and Chen Radiology Clinic were reviewed backward in the second molar tooth perspective. Demographic data (age, gender, presence of syndrome), the presence, numbers, positions, positions of the second molar teeth, one or two-sided formation, treatment form and neighboring 3.molar teeth presence and condition were assessed. Results: In the study of PRs of 12113 patients, 21 of 16 patients were diagnosed with a second molar and the frequency was 0.13%. The vast majority of the teeth were observed in the lower neck, one-sided and vertical position. Three molls associated with these teeth were found to be often buried. Asymptomatic buried teeth are usually preferred to be traced. The result is that the second molar tooth remains buried is very rare. In order to prevent the symptoms that may arise from these teeth, it is important that the PRs are thoroughly examined and the patient’s tracking is important.
