Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CURRENT RESEARCH IN MEDICAL SCIENCES - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 7
Abstract
Statement of the problem: Using CBCT to determine root morphology minimizes rate of treatment failure and adverse effects, such as gouging and perforations .Purpose one of the main reasons of the failure in root canal therapy of the maxillarypremolarteeth,is missing the additional canals.therefore, for doing the successful root canal therapy,it is important to know about the canal morphology of teeth in this study thevariation in number of roots and canals in men & women have been reported.one of the ways for studying anatomy and morphology of teeth is using CBCT that provide three dimentional radiography and having less ray in comparison . The aim of this study was to assess morphology of root canals first and second maxillary premolars using CBCT scans in ahvaz papulation .Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, conducted in the Radiology Department ofahvaz Dental School in 2015-2016 ,129 CBCT scans were studied.
