Purpose: To evaluate the prevalence of pulp stones in a Turkish paediatric cohort from the Isparta district using panoramic radiographs. Methods: Panoramic radiographs of 19,857 children and adolescents between the ages of 9 and 18 years were retrospectively analysed to determine the prevalence and distribution of pulp stones. Teeth with pulp stones were classified in terms of dentition, location, dental status and complete or incomplete root formation. Statistical analysis was carried out by applying Chi‑square and Mann–Whitney U. Univariate logistic regression analysis was applied to determine the factors affecting pulp stone status. Differences were considered as significant when p < 0.05. Results: Out of a total of 19,857 patients, pulp stones were identified in 6.5%. Among the 548,415 teeth examined, 0.96% had pulp stones. The incidence of pulp stones in girls (7.4%) was higher than in boys (5.7%) (p < 0.001). The prevalence of pulp stones increased with age and was significantly higher in molar teeth. A significant difference existed in the incidence of pulp stones according to the jaws (p < 0.001). In both jaws, no statistically significant difference was observed in terms of teeth with pulp stones being on the right and left (p = 0.834). Of molars with pulp stones, 91.8% had completed root formation. The majority of patients (37.7%) had pulp stones in four teeth. Conclusion: Knowing the incidence of pulp stones in paediatric patients by dentists, endodontists, and paediatric dentists will help prevent complications that may occur during applications by facilitating the determination of appropriate methods, especially during endodontic procedures. |
