Gunes, Sezgin; Sumer, A. Pinar; Keles, Gonca Cayir; Kara, Nurten; Koprulu, Hulya; Bagci, Hasan; Bek, Yuksel (Medknow Publications & Media Pvt Ltd, 2008)Background & objectives: Genetic polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene are related to bone mineral density, bone turnover, and diseases with bone loss. Alveolar bone loss is a key feature in periodontitis. The ... -
Association of interleukin-10 gene polymorphisms with severe generalized chronic periodontitis
Sumer, A. Pinar; Kara, Nurten; Keles, Gonca Cayir; Gunes, Sezgin; Koprulu, Hulya; Bagci, Hasan (Wiley, 2007)Background: Interleukin-10 (IL-10), an anti-inflammatory cytokine, plays a role in periodontal disease by inhibiting synthesis of proinflammatory cytokines and stimulating protective antibody production. Genetic polymorphisms ... -
Association of matrix metalloproteinase-9 promoter gene polymorphism with chronic periodontitis
Keles, Gonca Cayir; Gunes, Sezgin; Sumer, A. Pinar; Sumer, Mahmut; Kara, Nurten; Bagci, Hasan; Koprulu, Hulya (Wiley, 2006)Background: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are related to tissue destruction and remodeling events in periodontal diseases.

Definition, classification and retrospective analysis of photostimulable phosphor image artefacts and errors in intraoral dental radiography
Caliskan, Armagan; Sumer, A. Pinar (British Inst Radiology, 2017)Objectives: To detect and determine image error and artefact types in intraoral radiographs obtained with photostimulable phosphor (PSP) technology, place them in an appropriate classification and retrospectively analyze ... -
Evaluation of anatomical variations of the nasal cavity and ethmoidal complex on cone-beam computed tomography
Caliskan, Armagan; Sumer, A. Pinar; Bulut, Elif (Springer, 2017)The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of anatomical variations of the nasal cavity and ethmoid complex on cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. The CBCT images of 322 patients were evaluated ... -
Evaluation of submandibular fossa using computed tomography and panoramic radiography
Sumer, A. Pinar; Zengin, A. Zeynep; Uzun, Canan; Karoz, T. Berre; Sumer, Mahmut; Danaci, Murat (Springer, 2015)We aimed to evaluate the correlation between the depth of the submandibular fossa (SF) using computed tomography (CT) and the visibility of the SF and mandibular canal (MC) on panoramic images. Eighty-six CT scans and ... -
