| Abstract:
|
The maxillary first molar is the human tooth, located laterally from both the maxillary second premolars . The function of this molar is similar to that of all molars in regard to grinding being the principal action during mastication. They have 3 roots namely mesiobuccal, distobuccal and palatal of which the mesiobuccal root is most commonly associated with having two canals. The aim of the study is to determine the incidence of MB 2 canal in the maxillary molars as well as to determine the distance between MB1 and MB2 canals using CBCT analysis. A total of 50 CDs were collected from patients in the South Indian population that consisted of 100 maxillary molars. They are viewed using CBCT analysis and the distance between MB1 and MB 2 canals were calculated using SIRONA. The study showed that 83% of the teeth had 2 canals in the mesiobuccal root and 17 % of the teeth had 1 canal in the mesiobuccal root. The distance B/W canals ranged from 1.13 to 3.74mm. The average distance between the two canals was 2.60mm. Proper knowledge of the anatomy will enable successful treatments and less failures in the treatment.
