Morphology of Mandibular Incisors: A Study on CBCT

BACKGROUND: The aim of the study was to identify the number of root canals and examine root canal morphology of permanent mandibular incisors in an Indian sub-population of Pune, Maharashtra, India using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). MATERIAL/METHODS: This study was conducted at Elite CBCT &...

description BACKGROUND: The aim of the study was to identify the number of root canals and examine root canal morphology of permanent mandibular incisors in an Indian sub-population of Pune, Maharashtra, India using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). MATERIAL/METHODS: This study was conducted at Elite CBCT & Dental Diagnostics, Pune. One hundred mandibular incisors were evaluated for the number of root, root canals and root morphology. RESULTS: In the present study, amongst 102 mandibular incisors, all had one root, 36% of them had a second canal, and Vertucci Type I was the most common type. CONCLUSIONS: CBCT imaging is an excellent method for detection of different canal configurations of mandibular incisors.
