OBJECTIVES To investigate the prevalence , gender difference , arch , morphology and position within the arch of supernumerary molar (SM) teeth in a referred Italian Caucasian population. STUDY DESIGN Records of 25,186 young patients were evaluated. Only data related to supernumerary teeth in the posterior region of the jaws were analyzed. The diagnosis of hyperdontia was formulated during th...

background: knowledge about root canal morphology and its frequent variations can exert considerable influence on the success of endodontic treatment. the aim of this study was to survey the root canal morphology of mandibular first premolar teeth in a gujarati population by decalcification and clearing technique.     methods: one hundred thirty eight extracted mandibular first premolar teeth w...

Running title: Root and canal morphology of maxillary first premolar teeth Abstract Aim : To determine the variations in the root and canal morphology of the maxillary first premolar teeth in a Ugandan population. Methodology : Extracted maxillary first premolar teeth (n = 202) were evaluated in this study. The specimens had their pulp chambers de-roofed. They were decalcified in nitric acid an...

The purpose of this study was to undertake a comprehensive literature review of the root and root canal morphology of the mandibular first premolar. Published studies citing the anatomy and morphology of mandibular premolars report data for over 6,700 teeth. These studies were divided into anatomical studies reporting number of roots, number of canals, and apical morphology. Variations because ...

Mammalian tooth form reflects the material properties of foods. Much research has focused on relationships between aspects of dental morphology and diet. Understanding these relationships allows us to infer feeding adaptations from the teeth of fossil forms. Most such studies have focused on unworn (rather than worn) teeth because these are easier to characterize and compare among species. Neve...
