Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the thickness of buccal and palatal alveolar bone and buccal bony curvature below root apex in maxillary anterior teeth of Korean adults using Cone-beam CT images.
The 3D image was reconstructed with dicom file obtained through CBCT from 20 - 39 year old Korean subjects (n = 20). The thickness of buccal and palatal plate, root diameter, the buccal bony curvature angle below root apex and the distance from root apex to the deepest point of buccal bony curvature were measured on maxillary anterior teeth area using OnDemand3D program.
Mean thickness of buccal plate 3 mm below CEJ was 0.68 ± 0.29 mm at central incisor, 0.76 ± 0.59 mm at lateral incisor, and 1.07 ± 0.80 mm at canine. Mean thickness of palatal plate 3 mm below CEJ was 1.53 ± 0.55 mm of central incisor, 1.18 ± 0.66 mm of lateral incisor, 1.42 ± 0.77 mm of canine. Bucco-lingual diameter 3 mm below CEJ was 5.13 ± 0.37 mm of central incisor, 4.58 ± 0.46 mm of lateral incisor, and 5.93 ± 0.47 mm of canine. Buccal bony curvature angle below root apex was 134.7 ± 17.5° at central incisor, 151.0 ± 13.9° at lateral incisor, 153.0 ± 9.5° at canine. Distance between root apex and the deepest point of buccal bony curvature of central incisor was 3.67 ± 1.28 mm at central incisor, 3.90 ± 1.51 mm at lateral incisor, and 5.13 ± 1.70 mm at canine.
Within the limitation of this study in Korean adults, the thickness of maxillary anterior buccal plate was very thin within 1mm and the thickness of palatal plate was thick, relatively. The buccal bony curvature below root apex of maxillary central incisor was higher than that of lateral incisor and canine and it seems that the buccal bony plate below root apex of central incisor is most curved.

Long-term stability including harmonious gingival margins around implants and adjacent teeth can be guaranteed by facial bone with sufficient width and height.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B8">8</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B9">9</xref></p><p>Generally, buccal alveolar bone crest of maxillary anterior teeth existed within 3 mm from CEJ. These results support the theory that implant head should be at least 3 mm apical to an imaginary line connecting the cementoenamel junctions (CEJs) of the adjacent teeth.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B10">10</xref></p><p>With respect to the reference lines A, B, C and D, the thickness of buccal plate in central incisor, lateral incisor and canine was all less than 1 mm. These findings support the fact that implant platform should be placed more palatally because it can be postulated that the buccal alveolar bone plate of South Korean adult is generally very thin, within 1 mm.</p><p>It is important to place the axis of the implant corresponding to the incisal edges of the adjacent teeth or slightly palatal to this landmark.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B11">11</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B12">12</xref> Otherwise implant can perforate the buccal alveolar plate. Kan and Rungcharassaeng<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B13">13</xref> stated that primary stability of implant is achieved by engaging the palatal wall and bone approximately 4 mm to 5 mm beyond the apex of the extraction socket. And it can be achieved by pressing the drills bodily against the palatal wall of the socket during the sequential osteotomy. Although thick labial bone plate is generally resistant to resorption and grafting is unnecessary, bone grafting is frequently done in case of thin labial bone to prevent collapse and minimize resorption regardless of the gap size.</p><p>The final implant diameter was within the confines of the tooth socket, without engaging the coronal portion of the labial plate, which is generally thin, to prevent perforation. A minimal distance of 2 mm between the implant and adjacent teeth is recommended to minimize marginal bone loss due to encroachment.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B13">13</xref> When this is not possible, an augmentation procedure is necessary prior to or during implant placement.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B14">14</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B15">15</xref> The suggested diameter for implants in the central incisor and canine areas is approximately 5 mm to 6 mm, and lateral incisors is approximately 3 mm to 4 mm.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B16">16</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B17">17</xref></p><p>At 3 mm below CEJ, the diameter of the root shows a large value in order of canine (5.93 ± 0.47 mm), central incisor (5.13 ± 0.37 mm) and lateral incisor (4.58 ± 0.46 mm) in size. Therefore, wide neck implants are not recommended for the use in the anterior maxilla. Also, the narrow neck implant which is most often recommended in lateral incisor areas was recommended due to the small diameter in Korea adults. Buser et al1 suggested that the narrow neck implant with a shoulder diameter of 3.5 mm is most often used in lateral incisor areas with a minimal gap size of 5.5 mm.</p><p>In this study, buccal bony curvature angle (∠PQR) below root apex of maxillary central incisor was the smallest, and it seems that the buccal bony plate of central incisor below root apex is most curved.</p><p>Thus the long axis of the drill during surgical drilling procedure in the central incisor should be parallel to buccal alveolar plate to prevent perforation of the buccal plate. Also a tapered implant is recommended.</p><p>In case of immediate implant placement following tooth extraction, the length of implant fixture should be as long as possible for initial stability.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B18">18</xref> In this study, the mean distance between root apex and the deepest point of buccal bony curvature was 3.67 ± 1.28 mm in central incisor, 3.90 ± 1.51 mm in lateral incisor, and 5.13 ± 1.70 mm in canine. This can be used as guidelines for selecting proper implant fixture length to prevent buccal plate perforation.</p></sec><sec sec-type="conclusions"><title>CONCLUSION</title><p>Within the limitation of this study in Korean adults, the thickness of maxillary anterior buccal plate was very thin within 1mm and the thickness of palatal plate was thick. The buccal bony curvature below root apex of maxillary central incisor was higher than that of lateral incisor and canine and it seems that the buccal bony plate below root apex of central incisor is most curved.</p></sec></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><person-group person-group-type="author"><name><surname>Buser</surname><given-names>D</given-names></name><name><surname>Martin</surname><given-names>W</given-names></name><name><surname>Belser</surname><given-names>UC</given-names></name></person-group><article-title>Optimizing esthetics for implant restorations in the anterior maxilla: anatomic and surgical considerations</article-title><source>Int J Oral Maxillofac Implants</source><year>2004</year><volume>19</volume><fpage>43</fpage><lpage>61</lpage><pub-id pub-id-type="pmid">15635945</pub-id></element-citation></ref><ref id="B2"><label>2</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><person-group person-group-type="author"><name><surname>Nevins</surname><given-names>M</given-names></name><name><surname>Camelo</surname><given-names>M</given-names></name><name><surname>De Paoli</surname><given-names>S</given-names></name><name><surname>Friedland</surname><given-names>B</given-names></name><name><surname>Schenk</surname><given-names>RK</given-names></name><name><surname>Parma-Benfenati</surname><given-names>S</given-names></name><name><surname>Simion</surname><given-names>M</given-names></name><name><surname>Tinti</surname><given-names>C</given-names></name><name><surname>Wagenberg</surname><given-names>B</given-names></name></person-group><article-title>A study of the fate of the buccal wall of extraction sockets of teeth with prominent roots</article-title><source>Int J Periodontics Restorative Dent</source><year>2006</year><volume>26</volume><fpage>19</fpage><lpage>29</lpage><pub-id pub-id-type="pmid">16515093</pub-id></element-citation></ref><ref id="B3"><label>3</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><person-group person-group-type="author"><name><surname>Cardaropoli</surname><given-names>G</given-names></name><name><surname>Araújo</surname><given-names>M</given-names></name><name><surname>Lindhe</surname><given-names>J</given-names></name></person-group><article-title>Dynamics of bone tissue formation in tooth extraction sites.
