introduction: this article describes the diagnosis and treatment of two symmetrical maxillary first molars with two canals in their distobuccal roots. a 32-year-old female had an emergency treatment because of the pain in tooth #16. on the second visit after accessing the pulp chamber and detecting three major canals (mb, db, and p) and exploring the 4th canal (mb 2 ), we noted that there was a...

Objective: To describe the radiographic location of the center of the femoral footprint of the cranial cruciate ligament (CrCL) in dogs. Material and Methods: Using femora from 49 adult, orthopedically sound dogs (BW ≥ 20 kg), a radiopaque marker was placed on the cranial border of the femoral footprint of the CrCL. Computed tomography and 3D reconstruction of each femur was performed subsequen...

On Behalf of the DISTO Collaboration * Surprisingly large polarization in hyperon production by unpolarized proton beam has been known since long time. Huge inclusive hyperon polarization data are available in literature, few data are disponible on spin observables and none on exclusive hyperon measurements. Evidence of relevant violation of the OZI rule in several reactions are also shown in r...

INTRODUCTION This article describes the diagnosis and treatment of two symmetrical maxillary first molars with two canals in their distobuccal roots. A 32-year-old female had an emergency treatment because of the pain in tooth #16. On the second visit after accessing the pulp chamber and detecting three major canals (MB, DB, and P) and exploring the 4th canal (MB2), we noted that there was a 5(...

The purpose of this study was to conduct a cone-beam computed tomographic (CBCT) investigation on the root and canal configuration of the mandibular first molars, especially the morphology of the disto-lingual (DL) root, in a Chinese subpopulation. A total of 910 CBCT images of the mandibular first molars were collected from 455 patients who underwent CBCT examinations as a preoperative assessm...

Variations in the dental anatomy are found in all teeth. Knowledge of these variations, particularly concerning the location and treatment of all canals, is very important for the success of the endodontic therapy. The purpose of this study is to present a clinical case of a maxillary second molar with three palatal canals, two mesio-buccal and one disto-buccal canal. This report serves to remi...

Human molars show considerable anatomic variations with respect to number of roots and root canals. The most common form of the permanent maxillary first molar has three roots and four canals, two mesiobuccal canals and one distobuccal and palatal canal each. 98.3% of maxillary first molar have been reported to have a single distobuccal canal. Two canals were found only 1.7% of the time, hence ...

objective: the purpose of the present study was to assess the microleakage of composite restorations with and without a cervical amalgam base and to compare the results of dif-ferent composites and bonding agents. materials and methods: one hundred and twenty mesio-occlusal (mo) and disto-occlusal (do) class ii cavities were prepared on sixty extracted permanent premolar teeth. the teeth were r...
