Retrospective study of root canal configurations of maxillary third molars in Central India population using cone beam computed tomography Part- I

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the root and canal morphology of maxillary third molars in Central India population using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) analysis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: CBCT images of 116 maxillary third molars were observed, and data regarding the number o...

description OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the root and canal morphology of maxillary third molars in Central India population using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) analysis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: CBCT images of 116 maxillary third molars were observed, and data regarding the number of roots, the number of canals, and Vertucci's Classification in each root was statistically evaluated. RESULTS: Majority of Maxillary third molars had three roots (55.2%) and three canals (37.9%). Most MB root (43.8%), DB root (87.5%), and palatal root (100%) of maxillary third molars had Vertucci Type I. Mesiobuccal root of three-rooted maxillary third molars had Vertucci Type I (43.8%) and Type IV (40.6%) configuration. Overall prevalence of C-shaped canals in maxillary third molars was 3.4%. CONCLUSION: There was a high prevalence of three-rooted maxillary molars with three canals.
