Seçilen bir Türk popülasyonunda koni-ışınlı bilgisayarlı tomografi kullanılarak mandibular birinci ve ikinci premolarların kök kanal morfolojisi ve literatür taraması

Objectives: To investigate the root canal morphology of permanent mandibular premolars using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in selected population and to review previous studies regarding other Turkish subpopulations. Materials Methods: The sample for this retrospective study included 1048 CBCT images 672 females 376 males representing 1613 first 1461 second premolars. Pubmed Google Scholar were used search literature with keywords. Results: incidence single was 99.75% 99.38%, respectively. Complex anatomy evident compared than (p<0.05). Eight have previously evaluated subpopulations by clearing or images. prevalence 2 more canals found between 5.80% - 39.50% 1.1% -29% these studies. Conclusions: More attention should be paid detection additional during treatment premolars, especially male patients. symmetrical may guide practitioners treatment. Evaluation methods could affect results anatomy.
