A retrospective study of the intentionally replanted mandibular second molars with C-shaped root canal configurations

چکیده
For the successful root canal treatment, thorough cleaning and shaping of the root canal system is a necessary procedure. C-shaped canals are known to have a complex canal anatomy with numerous fins connecting individual canals, thus require supplementary effort to accomplish a successful root canal treatment. Generally, anthropologic differences in tooth shape is not an important issue in the root canal treatment, however, mandibular second molar is a matter of concern due to its high incidence of Cshaped root canal configurations especially in Asian populations. In this regard, recent studies reported that more than 30% of Chinese or Koreans have Cshaped mandibular second molar in their arch.

Morphology and Prevalence of C-shaped Canal in Mandibular Second Molars in a Population in North of Iran
Background and purpose: In order to achieve a successful root canal treatment, knowledge on root canal morphology and anatomy is essential. This study investigated the prevalence and morphology of the C- shaped canal in the mandibular second molar. Materials and methods: In this cross sectional study, we used cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of 260 patients obtained from a radiology...

متن کاملRoot canal configuration and the prevalence of C-shaped canals in mandibular second molars in an Iranian population.
A total of 139 extracted mandibular second molars were injected with India ink and demineralized. They were made clear and transparent with methyl salicylate, and the anatomy of their canals was studied. It was found that 86.3% of mandibular second molars had two roots, 9.3% had one root, and 4.3% had three roots. Ninety percent of the mesial roots of the mandibular second molars with two roots...
