Radiological and Anatomical Evaluation of the Hard Palate in Healthy Adults: A Retrospective Study

In this study, the authors evaluated the hard palate angle, inclination, depth types, and the presence of S-shaped projection in healthy individuals. Due to its complex anatomy and central position within the craniofacial region, the hard palate serves as a key landmark, providing important anatomical and clinical insights. The data obtained may assist especially anatomists, dentists, and anesthetists in understanding normal variations and supporting accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

Abstract

In this study, the authors evaluated the hard palate angle, inclination, depth types, and the presence of S-shaped projection in healthy individuals. Due to its complex anatomy and central position within the craniofacial region, the hard palate serves as a key landmark, providing important anatomical and clinical insights. The data obtained may assist especially anatomists, dentists, and anesthetists in understanding normal variations and supporting accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
