OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to investigate the root/number of roots and morphology of mandibular premolars and molars in a Korean population, and to evaluate the prevalence of three-rooted mandibular first molars having distolingual (DL) roots, three-rooted mandibular second molars, and C-shaped roots in mandibular second molars. METHODS Serial axial cone-beam computed tomography ...

Neuromorphic and brain-based robotics have enormous potential for furthering our understanding of the brain. By embodying models of the brain on robotic platforms, researchers can investigate the roots of biological intelligence and work towards the development of truly intelligent machines. This book provides a broad introduction to this groundbreaking area for researchers from a wide range of...

the vast majority of mandibular second molars have two roots with three root canals; however, variations in molar root canal anatomy are not uncommon. to the best of our knowledge, four rooted mandibular second molar with three mesial roots and one distal root has never been reported. herein, we present the endodontic management of a four rooted mandibular second molar tooth, diagnosed with the...

Multi-photon excitation (MPE) microscopy plays a growing role among microscopical techniques utilized for studying biological matter. In conjunction with confocal microscopy it can be considered the imaging workhorse of life science laboratories. Its roots can be found in a fundamental work written by Maria Goeppert Mayer more than 70 years ago. Nowadays, 2PE and MPE microscopes are expected to...

in process of sucrose determination in sugar beet, pulp analysis by polarometric method is done on the basis of fresh root weight .the volume of the juice of 26 grams of the pulp is considered 23 ml that with 177 ml of clarifying agent would be 200 ml. drought stress and dehydrated root reduce. the volume of the pulp extract of 23 ml. the objective of this experiment was to determine the proper...

introduction: the aim of this study was to evaluate the root canal morphology of mandibular first and second molars using cone-beam computed tomography (cbct) in northern iranian population and also to indicate the thinnest area around root canals. methods and materials: we evaluated cbct images of 154 first molars and 147 second molars. by evaluating three axial, sagittal and coronal planes of...

conclusions most extracted maxillary first molars were three rooted and four canals. cbct has relatively high reproducibility and accuracy of distinguishing mb2 canal. results we found 100% of cases with three separated roots, from which 69.23% had four canals including mb2 and 30.77% with three canals. 71.3% of mesiobuccal roots were two canals of type two vertucci and 28.7% type 4 with the me...
