Abstract:
Introuduction
Knowledge of the internal anatomy and apical foramen of a tooth has always been a fundamental prerequisite for root canal therapy.Aim of the present study was to evaluate the distance of apical foramen in relation to the anatomical apex of mandibular molars by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) in a selected Iranian population.
Materials & Methods
In this cross- sectional study,97CBCT images of 25-50 years old patients were evaluated .the teeth were assessed in coronal plan.
Results
Average (±SD) distance from apical foramen to the anatomical apex in the mesio-buccal and mesio-lingual, distal canal were [0.938 (±0.294)mm], [0.964 (±0.315)mm] and [0.982 (±0.322)mm] respectively. no statistical difference was found between right and left quadrant.
Conclusion
This study demonstrated that 1mm distance from radiographic apex in mandibular molars could be appropriate for root canal therapy.Keywords:
