Background: The growth prediction using reliable growth assessment methods is an invaluable tool during
orthodontic treatment planning. This study aimed to examine the relationship between frontal sinus (FS)
morphology and cervical vertebral maturation (CVM) to predict the skeletal maturity of an individual.
Methods: The present study consisted of ۲۵۲ lateral cephalograms of orthodontic patients. CVM stages and
FS parameters such as FS height, FS width, and FS index were assessed using the same lateral cephalogram.
Statistical methods including t test, analysis of variance (ANOVA), and Pearson correlation (r) were used
for the statistical analysis.
Results: FS height and width were greater in males (۲۴.۳۳ ± ۴.۲۱; ۱۰.۰۸ ± ۳.۲۰) compared to females
(۲۱.۴۳ ± ۵.۳۴; ۸.۱۲ ± ۲.۱۹), indicating a statistical difference (P < ۰.۰۵). However, FS index did not show
a statistically significant difference (P = ۰.۳۲) between males (۲.۵۹ ± ۰.۷۴) and females (۲.۶۹ ± ۰.۴۴). FS
height and width increased significantly in a linear fashion from CVM stage ۱ to stage ۶. FS index, on the
other hand, did not exhibit any statistically significant differences among CVM stages in both males and
females. FS height and width showed a significant weak to moderate correlation with CVM stages in both
males and females. However, FS index exhibited a mild and weak negative correlation with the CVM
stages in both males and females.
Conclusions: FS height and width had a significant weak to moderate correlation with CVM stages in both
the males and females, while FS index had a weak negative correlation with CVM stages in both males
and females. Unlike the CVM method, the FS morphology cannot be reliably utilized to assess the skeletal
maturity.
