Cone beam-computed tomography as an indispensable tool in the management of radiculous premolar: a case report
نویسنده
چکیده
Background: Internal anatomy of maxilary first premolars is particularly multifaceted on account of the variation in number of roots and canal configuration. Maxilary first premolars with 3 roots are caled as smal molar or “radiculous” because of their similar anatomy to the maxilary first molars. The most demanding step in endodontic treatment is identification and proper access to pulp canals of certain teeth with atypical canal configurations. Methods of identification of such premolars can be by various aides. Case Presentation: The present case describes the application of Cone Beam-Computed Tomography in the diagnosis of extra root with extra canal in a three rooted maxilary right first premolar. Conclusions: Proper knowledge of the anatomical variations is a must for an endodontist to make a treatment successful. Utilizing the latest technology along with the traditional concepts can surely rule out the inaccuracy in the treatment involved in such cases.

Stafne bone defect is a bone depression containing salivary gland or fatty soft tissue on the lingual surface of the mandible. The most common location is within the submandibular gland fossa and often close to the inferior border of the mandible. This defect is asymptomatic and generally discovered only incidentally during radiographic examination of the area. Stafne bone defect appears as a w...
