Evaluation of Complex Mesiobuccal Root Anatomy in Maxillary First Molar Teeth

Evaluation of root canal anatomy in mandibular anterior Teeth and mandibular and maxillary premolars.

Background: Knowledge about the anatomy of root canals is an important facror in the prognosis of  root canal  therapy .The purpose  of  this  study is to derermine  the root  canal anatomy in  mandibalar anterior  reeth and  premolars by clear and dye peneration method. Materials and methods:In this  study, 350 human mandibular anterior teeth and  mandibular  and  maxillary premolars(from e...

Canal configuration in the mesiobuccal root of the maxillary first molar and its endodontic significance.

Computerized Tomography Technique for the Investigation of the Maxillary First Molar Mesiobuccal Root

The aim of this paper was to review the literature about the use of computerized tomography to evaluate the presence and characteristics of the second mesiobuccal canal in the maxillary first molar. An electronic search was performed. Frequencies of the presence of second mesiobuccal canal and root anatomy characteristics were extracted from the selected studies. Pooled frequencies were calcula...

A Micro CT study of the mesiobuccal root canal morphology of the maxillary first molar tooth.

AIM To observe the morphology of the root canal system of the maxillary first molar mesiobuccal root using micro computed tomography and compare it to current canal classifications. METHODOLOGY Twenty mesiobuccal roots were resected from randomly selected extracted human maxillary first molar teeth and prepared for scanning using a SkyScan micro CT scanner (SkyScan 1172 X-ray microtomograph, ...

Three-dimensional analysis of mesiobuccal root canal of Japanese maxillary first molar using Micro-CT.

The objective of this study was to three-dimensionally observe the morphological characteristics of mesiobuccal root canals of Japanese maxillary first molars using microcomputed tomography (Micro-CT) and classify root canal variations. This study used 90 maxillary first molars. Three-dimensional reconstruction was performed using data obtained by Micro-CT, and cross-sections of the root canals...
