“…This is in conformity with another study conducted in Pakistan which reported an incidence of 5.22%. 16 In our study, the incidence of accessory canal was found to be 10.4%. This is in agreement with a similar study conducted in India which reported 12.8% incidence of accessory canal in canine.…”

Objective: To investigate the incidence of accessory canals and the variation in root canal morphology of permanent mandibular incisors and canines in Pakistani population using Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT). Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in University College of Dentistry, The University of Lahore, Pakistan after getting institutional ethical permission from January 2020 to September 2022. The data included records of 111 patients consisting of 444 permanent mandibular incisors and 222 permanent mandibular canines. Accessory root, root canals and Vertucci canal configuration for each tooth was recorded. Data analysis was done using SPSS v20. Descriptive statistics were calculated for each anatomical parameter. Chi-square test was applied to determine association of gender with the presence of accessory roots and root canals. Results: Among the 111 records evaluated, 48.6% were males and 51.4% were females. No accessory root was found in the central and lateral incisors. However, an accessory root was found in 4.9% of the canines. The incidence of accessory canals in the central incisors, lateral incisors and canines was 18.9%, 25.2% and 10.4% respectively. The most common canal configuration in teeth with accessory canals was Type-III, followed by Type-II and Type-V. Conclusion: None of the central or lateral incisor showed accessory root while it was detected in 4.9% canines. The frequency of accessory root canal was found to be 18.9%, 25.2% and 10.4% in central incisors, lateral incisors and canines respectively. The most common canal configuration was Type-I, followed by Type-III and Type-II. Type-V, VI and VII were less common. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.40.7.8744 How to cite this: Siddique SN, Babar P, Ghazanfar Z, Kayani JA.

“…Previous reports described 0.2% of mandibular canines were observed with bi-roots, but lateral incisors were all single root in Malaysian population [4]. 5.2% of permanent mandibular canines were also observed with two roots in Pakistani population via CBCT [20]. It is also reported that 1.5% of mandibular canines in Brazilian population, 0.3% of mandibular canines in Iran population are noticed with double roots via CBCT [6,21].…”

Purpose Investigation of roots and canals is crucial in clinical assessment and treatment. Morphologies such as root length, cemento-enamel junction curvature (CEJ-C), root furcation and canal variations are important factors yet remain to be discussed in depth. Methods In this retrospective study, we look into 4309 anterior teeth from 401 patients via cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in Chinese population, attempting to summarize the morphological characteristics of maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth. Results Maxillary and mandibular canines are observed with elevated root length compared with corresponding incisors (p < .0001), while those of mandibular central and lateral incisor varied with significant difference (p < .0001). The CEJ-C reveals significant increasement around incisors than canines in maxilla (p < .0001). Root furcation is detected in mandibular canines and lateral incisors. Moreover, all types of Vertucci’s classification are noticed with two other new types. Conclusions The current findings help to optimize the root morphological understanding of Chinese population especially in endodontics. Moreover, CEJ-C facilitates clinical aesthetic interpretation and treatment in implantology and prosthodontic. However, further study should be carried out to investigate morphologies of posterior dentition.

Purpose Morphological analysis of permanent anterior dentition is essential for achieving an ideal treatment outcome and avoiding unnecessary failure. This study aimed to analyze the morphologies of anterior teeth in the Chinese population in depth. Methods In this retrospective study, 4309 anterior teeth from 401 Chinese patients were investigated using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) from 2019–2021. We summarized the morphological characteristics of the anterior teeth in terms of the root length, cementoenamel junction curvature (CEJ-C), root furcation and canal variations. Results We found that the root lengths of the maxillary anterior incisors were similar (13.3 mm), while the root lengths of the mandibular central (12.2 mm) and lateral incisors (13.4 mm) varied significantly (p < .0001). Both the maxillary (16.6 mm) and mandibular canines (15.5 mm) were found to have greater root lengths than the corresponding incisors (p < .0001). The CEJ-C was significantly greater around incisors (2.5 mm) than around the canines (2.0 mm) in the maxilla (p < .0001), while the curvature remained similar in mandibular anterior teeth (1.8 mm). Root furcation was observed in mandibular canines and lateral incisors. Moreover, all types of Vertucci’s classification in anterior dentitions were observed, while two other new types were found. Among them, the maxilla was only observed to exhibit types I, II, III, and ST II, while the mandible was found to exhibit almost all types. However, Type I still accounts for the majority of dentitions. Conclusions Morphological analysis of permanent anterior dentition revealed diversity in the tooth length, CEJ-C, furcation proportion, and canal variations. In general, mandibular anterior teeth showed a more complex structure than maxillary teeth.
