Coronal images were analyzed to determine the presence and diameter of the AAA, its mediolateral position relative to the lateral wall of the maxillary sinus, and its distances from the alveolar crest (AC) and maxillary sinus floor (MSF) in the regions of the first premolar, second premolar, first molar, and second molar.
