ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the existence of carotid artery calcifications in dental panoramic radiographs and dental pulp calcifications together with dental pulp stones in periapical radiographs in patients with chronic renal failure undergoing haemodialysis and healthy individuals, and to identify the relationship between the two groups. Patients and methods: A total of 115 cases (57 patients on haemodialysis for chronic renal failure and 58 healthy individuals without any systemic disease) were included in the study. Carotid artery calcifications in panoramic radiographs and dental pulp calcifications, and pulp stones in periapical radiographs were investigated. Results: None of the individuals in the control group had calcifications of carotid artery. However, in 3 out of 57 (5.26 %) of patients in haemodialysis program, calcifications were detected. Dental pulp calcifications existed in 108 (10.24 %) teeth of 16 patients on haemodialysis and 19 (1.45 %) teeth of 7 individuals in the control group. Existence of dental pulp stones was recorded in 5 (0.38 %) teeth of 3 control cases and 1 (0.09 %) tooth of 1 patient on haemodialysis. Conclusion: When patients with chronic renal failure undergoing haemodialysis were compared to healthy individuals by means of panoramic and periapical radiographs, there were no statistically significant differences for carotid artery calcifications and dental pulp stones. However, there was statistically significant difference when dental pulp calcifications were compared. Key words: Haemodialysis, pulp calcifications, pulp stones, carotid artery calcifications OZET Amac: Bu calismanin amaci diyalize giren kronik bobrek yetmezligi olan hastalar ile saglikli bireyleri, panoramik radyografilerde karotid arter kalsifikasyonu ve periapikal radyografilerdeki pulpa kalsifikasyonu ve pulpa tasi varligi acisindan karsilastirarak incelemektir. Hastalar ve metot: Calismaya kronik bobrek yetmezligi olup diyalize giren 57 ve saglikli 58 birey olmak uzere toplam 115 kisi dahil edilmis ve bu kisilerde panoramik radyografilerdeki karotid arter kalsifikasyonu ve periapikal radyografilerdeki pulpa kalsifikasyonlari ve pulpa taslari arastirilmistir. Bulgular: Kontrol grubundaki bireylerin hicbirinde karotid arter kalsifikasyonu belirlenmemesine ragmen diyalize giren 57 hastanin 3’unde (5,26%) karotid arter kalsifikasyonu belirlenmistir. Kontrol grubundaki bireylerden 7’sinin 19 (1,45%) disinde; diyalize giren hastalardan 16’sinin 108 (10,24%) disinde dental pulpa kalsifikasyonu tespit edilmistir. Ayrica 3 kontrol hastasinin 5 (0,38%) disinde ve 1 diyaliz hastasinin 1 (0,09%) disinde dental pulpa tasi varligi kaydedilmistir. Sonuc: Kronik bobrek yetmezligi olup diyalize giren kisiler ile saglikli kisiler panoramik ve periapikal radyografilerde karotid arter ve pulpa tasi varligi karsilastirildigi zaman istatistiksel olarak anlamli bir fark sergilememisken; pulpa kalsifikasyonlarinda istatistiksel olarak anlamli fark bulunmustur. Anahtar kelimeler: Diyaliz, pulpa kalsifikasyonlari, pulpa taslari, karotid arter kalsifikasyonlari
