Abstract:Introduction. Missing anatomy is one of the main causes of endodontic failures, and accurate knowledge of teeth anatomy is a prerequisite for adequate root canal treatment. The aim of the present cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) study was to describe the anatomical characteristics of the mesiobuccal (MB) root canals of maxillary molars and to understand if a correlation exists between the position of the canal orifices and the anatomical features of the root. Methods. For the purposes of the study, a total… Show more
