Abstract

Objective

To systematically review the diagnostic applications of ultrasound (US) imaging to evaluate periodontal tissues in humans.

Materials and Methods

The search was conducted on Medline, EMBASE, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane, and PubMed up to April 3, 2023. The studies included were exclusively human studies that assessed the periodontium with US imaging (b-mode). Outcomes measured included alveolar bone level, alveolar bone thickness, gingival thickness, and blood flow quantification. References were imported to Covidence. Two reviewers conducted phases 1 and 2. The JBI risk assessment tool for cross-sectional studies was used. Extracted data included the transducer and measurements used and the study's outcomes.

Results

The search yielded 4892 studies after removing duplicates. From these, 25 studies were included and selected for extraction. Included studies retrieved outcomes from US examinations of the periodontal tissues. From the selected studies, 15 used US on natural teeth, 4 used US on implants, 2 used US on edentulous ridges, and 4 used Doppler US to evaluate the blood flow.

Conclusion

The results of the present systematic review suggest that US might be a feasible and valuable diagnostic tool for the periodontium, with the potential to complement shortfalls of current radiographic technologies.

口腔内超声成像在牙周组织评估中的诊断能力：一项系统综述

目的系统回顾超声成像在人类牙周组织诊断中的应用。材料和方法检索截止到2023年4月3日，在Medline， EMBASE, Web of Science, Scopus， Cochrane和PubMed上进行。纳入的研究仅是人类研究，用超声显像（b型）评估牙周组织。测量的结果包括牙槽骨水平、牙槽骨厚度、牙龈厚度和血流量化。参考文献被导入到covid。两名审稿人进行了第一阶段和第二阶段。采用JBI风险评估工具进行横断面研究。提取的数据包括所使用的传感器和测量数据以及研究结果。结果剔除重复项后，共检索到4892项研究。从中选取25项研究进行提取。纳入的研究从美国牙周组织检查中检索结果。在选定的研究中，15例使用超声检测天然牙，4例使用超声检测种植牙，2例使用超声检测无牙嵴，4例使用多普勒超声检测血流。结论本系统综述的结果表明，超声可能是一种可行和有价值的牙周组织诊断工具，具有弥补现有放射技术不足的潜力。

期刊介绍： Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology and Oral Radiology is required reading for anyone in the fields of oral surgery, oral medicine, oral pathology, oral radiology or advanced general practice dentistry. It is the only major dental journal that provides a practical and complete overview of the medical and surgical techniques of dental practice in four areas. Topics covered include such current issues as dental implants, treatment of HIV-infected patients, and evaluation and treatment of TMJ disorders. The official publication for nine societies, the Journal is recommended for initial purchase in the Brandon Hill study, Selected List of Books and Journals for the Small Medical Library.
