Aim
Inverted teeth are a very rare anomaly. In addition, there has been no detailed research on the subject except case reports. The aim of this study is to provide information about the radiologic and demographic features of inverse teeth.
Material-Methods
Between January 2016 and December 2022, 154 inverse teeth that were detected in panoramic radiographs taken for diagnostic purposes in the Department of Oral, Dental and Maxillofacial Radiology of our faculty between January 2016 and December 2022 were included in the study. Data were analyzed with IBM SPSS V23. Chi-square test was used to compare categorical variables according to groups. Significance level was taken as p<0.050.
Results
Of the 154 cases, 61 (39.6%) were female and 93 (60.4%) were male and 148 (96.1%) cases were seen in the maxilla and 6 (3.9%) in the mandible. 36 (23.4%) cases were seen on the right side, 45 (29.2%) on the left side and 73 (47.4%) in the midline. A statistically significant difference was observed in the distribution of inverse tooth types and the side of the teeth according to gender (p<0.05).
Conclusion
Inverted teeth are a very rare anomaly. As with all impacted inverted teeth, it should be kept in mind that pathologies related to these teeth may develop and the patient should be informed about this for routine control.

Amaç
İnvers dişler oldukça nadir gözlenen bir anomalidir. Ayrıca daha önce konu hakkında vaka raporları dışında detaylı bir araştırma yapılmamıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı invers dişlerin radyolojik ve demografik özellikleri hakkında bilgi vermektir.
Materyal-Metot
Fakültemiz Ağız, Diş ve Çene Radyolojisi Anabilim Dalı’nda Ocak 2016-Aralık 2022 tarihleri arasında herhangi bir dental sebeple başvurmuş ve teşhis amaçlı çekilen panoramik radyografilerde tespit edilen 154 invers diş çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Veriler IBM SPSS V23 ile analiz edildi. Gruplara göre kategorik değişkenlerin karşılaştırılmasında Ki-kare testi kullanılmıştır. Önem düzeyi p<0,050 olarak alınmıştır.
Bulgular
154 olgunun 61'i (%39,6) kadın, 93'ü (%60,4) erkekti ve vakaların 148'i (%96,1) maksillada 6'sı (%3,9) mandibulada görülmüştür. 36 (%23,4) olgu sağ tarafta, 45 (%29,2) olgu sol tarafta ve 73 (%47,4) olgu orta hatta görülmüştür. Cinsiyete göre inverse diş tipleri ve bulunduklara tarafa göre dağılımında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark gözlenmiştir (p<0.05).
Sonuç
İnvers dişler çok nadir görülen bir anomalidir. Tüm gömülü dişlerde olduğu gibi gömülü invers dişlere bağlı patolojilerin gelişebileceği akılda tutulmalı ve rutin kontrol için hasta bu konuda bilgilendirilmelidir.
