      of diagnosis of furcation involvement in molars: An in vitro CBCT study.

AB  - OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the possible interference of 
      image artifacts (IA) generated by dental implants in the evaluation of furcation 
      involvement (FI) in molars. METHODS: Tomographic scans of first molars (1M) were 
      performed in dry skulls in the absence and presence of titanium (TI) and zirconia 
      (ZI) dental implants. FI grades were simulated in the alveoli of the 1Ms. 
      Diagnostic accuracy of FI and level of difficulty were verified. Chi-squared test 
      and logistic regression analysis were used. RESULTS: There was no difference in 
      the diagnostic accuracy of FI between the arches (p = .117). The highest 
      diagnostic accuracy value for the implant variable was found in the absence of 
      implants (88.3%) and the lowest in the presence of two ZI implants (66.7%). The 
      highest diagnostic accuracy value for FI was observed in grade 0 (G0). There was 
      no significant difference between the arches regarding the evaluators' perception 
      of difficulty (p > .05). Assessments were considered difficult in 12.7% of the TI 
      implants and in 29% of the ZI implants. Regarding the number of dental implants, 
      assessments were considered difficult in 24.4% cases including one implant and 
      17.4% cases including two implants. The logistic regression model showed a 
      significant p-value only for one and two ZI implants (p = .0061 and p = .0096, 
      respectively). CONCLUSION: The presence of dental implants in the region adjacent 
      to the area of investigation of FI decreased the diagnostic accuracy while 
      increasing the perception of difficulty by the examiners, especially in cases 
      with ZI implants.
