background and aims. a through knowledge of the root canal morphology is required for successful endodontic therapy. the aim of this study was to investigate the root and canal morphology of mandibular third molars in kerman, a province in southeast of iran. materials and methods. one-hundred-fifty extracted mandibular third molars were collected randomly from different dental clinics in kerman...

BACKGROUND Precise assessment of dental pulp anatomy is of an extreme importance for a successful endodontic treatment. As standard radiographs of teeth provide very limited information on dental pulp anatomy, more capable methods are highly appreciated. One of these is 3D magnetic resonance (MR) microscopy of which diagnostic capabilities in terms of a better dental pulp anatomy assessment wer...

The alveolar bone undergoes a remodelling process after tooth extraction, which leads to horizontal and vertical loss. These resorption processes complicate dental rehabilitation, particularly in connection with implants. Clinical studies have suggested that retaining roots of hopeless teeth may avoid tissue alterations extraction. aim is seal the surgical site following outline extraction sock...

Meticulous cleaning, shaping and filling of the root canal system are requisites for a successful root canal treatment.. Unfortunately, canal preparation is adversely influenced by the highly complex, intricate and variable root-canal anatomy. Thorough knowledge of root canal morphology and unusual anatomy of the tooth is crucial for the practitioner. Over the years, there have been numerous st...

Background: Knowledge of variations in dental anatomy and canal morphology plays a key role in the success of endodontic therapy. Case presentation: This report presents a patient who had unusual tooth morphology, including the bilateral existence of 11 maxillary and mandibular first, second and third molars with a single root and a single canal. The patient was diagnosed using cone-beam comput...

introduction: mandibular first molar is the most important tooth with complicated morphology. in finite element (fe) studies, investigators usually prefer to model anterior teeth with a simple and single straight root; it makes the results deviate from the actual case. the most complicated and time-consuming step in fe studies is modeling of the desired tooth, thus this study was performed to e...

Macroscelidid afrotherians and canid carnivorans possess four premolar loci, the first of which is not replaced. Previous work suggests that in macroscelidids a retained deciduous tooth, but Canis it successional tooth with no milk precursor. We tested this contrasting interpretation homology data from ontogenetic anatomy area predictions inhibitory cascade (IC) model. Our results based on supp...
