<p>We investigated the morphology of the sella turcica in Japanese adults with skeletal Class I craniofacial morphological. The sella turcica is an important reference point in orthodontic treatment planning and growth evaluation. The participants were 47 males and 43 females who were fifth-year students at Osaka Dental University with normal occlusion and craniofacial morphology. The sella turcica morphology and craniofacial morphology were studied using cephalometric radiographs. Results showed gender variations in the sella turcica size. The most prevalent morphology in both males and females was a nomal sella turcica. Correlations were found between the sella turcica size and certain craniofacial morphology measurements. Ethnic differences in the sella turcica size were observed, highlighting the importance of understanding normal sella turcica morphology when detecting abnormalities. This study provides valuable insights into the sella turcica's characteristics in Japanese adults with skeletal Class I craniofacial morphology, contributing to better treatment planning and understanding of craniofacial development. Further research during growth stages should shed light on its relation to the craniofacial morphology of the abnormalities. (J Osaka Dent Univ 2024; 58: 13-19)</p>
