Operating microscope improves negotiation of second mesiobuccal canals in maxillary molars.

This in vitro study investigated the prevalence, location, and pathway of the second mesiobuccal canal (MB-2) in 45 first and second maxillary molars using the operating microscope (OM). Initially location and negotiation of MB-2 were attempted without magnification. Teeth in which MB-2 was not located or could not be negotiated were further explored under OM. Roots where MB-2 could not be negotiated even with OM were cross-sectioned and inspected microscopically. Morphometric measurements were performed to map the location of MB-2. Without magnification an apparent MB-2 orifice was located in 42 teeth and the canal negotiated in 31 (69%). With OM one additional apparent MB-2 orifice was located, and five previously identified canals were negotiated (total 80%). The root cross-sections confirmed the absence of MB-2 in all nine teeth where it was not negotiated. Location of MB-2 varied randomly. In conclusion MB-2 can be negotiated in 80% of maxillary molars, although an orifice is apparent in 96% of the teeth. Ability to negotiate MB-2 is facilitated by OM.

3D geometric analysis of second mesiobuccal canal in permanent maxillary first molar tooth

Cone-beam computed tomography scans exhibiting a second mesiobuccal (MB2) canal were examined. The vertical distance of the MB2 orifice from the pulp floor (depth), inter-orifice distance (IOD) of MB2 from mesiobuccal (MB) and palatal (P) orifices, the horizontal distance of the MB2 orifice from the line joining MB-P orifices [mesial deviation (MD)] and root canal configuration (RCC) were evaluated on 330 scans. The Student's t-test, ANOVA, Spearman's correlation and linear regression analysis were applied. The MB2 depth was 1.69 ± 0.86 mm. IOD (MB-MB2, MB2-P) was 2.18 ± 0.58 mm and 4.63 ± 1.06 mm, respectively. MD was 1.02 ± 0.37 mm. The predominant RCC was Vertucci's type II (75.5%). No correlation of depth with IOD of MB-MB2 (rho = 0.0367, p = 0.506) was observed. Significant correlation of depth with IOD of MB2-P (rho = 0.696, p < 0.001) and MD (rho = 0.174, p = 0.001) was established. No association of depth with age and IOD (MB-MB2) was observed on linear regression analysis. However, a significant positive association was established with IOD (MB2-P) (p < 0.001) and MD (p = 0.001).     

Determination of canal orifice co-ordinates and MB2 incidence of maxillary first molars in a Turkish sub-population

Objectives. To measure the co-ordinates of the root canal orifices and to determine the incidence of mesiobuccal-2 (MB2) in maxillary first molars in a Turkish sub-population. Materials and methods. Standard digital photographs were taken under a stereomicroscope from the occlusal aspect of each tooth (n = 176) before and after crown removal. Canal orifices were negotiated under moderate magnification using dental loupes. The coordinates of the orifices and the distances of each from the central fossa were measured by using geographic software. Intensity maps of the orifice locations were created by using the co-ordinates of all canal orifices. A representative map was drawn using the mean values of orifice locations and access projection area. Results. In the right maxillary first molars, the mean values for the (X, Y) co-ordinates were (0.67, 2.68) for mesiobuccal-1 (MB1), (0.81, 0.84) for MB2, (?1.12, 1.26) for distobuccal-1 (D1), (?0.89, 0.23) for distobuccal-2 (D2) and (0, ?2.50) for palatinal (P); the corresponding mean values in the left maxillary first molars were (?0.78, 2.56), (?0.98, 0.90), (0.99, 1.18), (0.69, 0.78) and (0.00, ?2.53), respectively. The average MB1–MB2 distance was 1.97 mm. Distobuccalcanal orifices were localized at the distal side of the center in 98.3% of teeth. The incidence of MB2 was 46.02%. Conclusions. The distobuccal canal orifice is mostly located on the distal side of the central fossa. Thus, it should be considered that the access cavity of the maxillary molars may not be always limited mesially. The incidence of MB2 in this sub-population was 46.02%, which is of great importance clinically.     

Mesiobuccal and Palatal Interorifice Distance May Predict the Presence of the Second Mesiobuccal Canal in Maxillary Second Molars with Fused Roots

IntroductionThe aim of this study was to evaluate if the configuration of canal orifices can predict the presence of a second mesiobuccal canal (MB2) in maxillary second molars with fused roots.MethodsMaxillary second molars with fused roots (N = 150) were scanned in a micro–computed tomographic device (pixel size = 9 μm) and evaluated regarding the root fusion type and the incidence of the MB2 canal. The centers of the canal orifices were connected, and the angles formed by the intersection of these lines as well as their distances were measured and statistically compared (1-way analysis of variance). Specimens were then assigned to 2 groups according to the presence (n = 65) or absence (n = 50) of the MB2 canal and compared regarding the angles and interorifice distances using the Welch t test. A binary logistic regression model estimated the association between the interorifice distance, the fusion type, and the presence of the MB2 canal, whereas receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was performed to evaluate the diagnostic abilities of significant variables. The significance level was set at 5%.ResultsThe most common fusion types were 1 and 6, and MB2 canal incidence was 47.3%. No statistical difference was observed in the angles or interorifice distances among teeth with different fusion types (P > .05). Distances from the mesiobuccal (MB) to the distobuccal and palatal (P) canal orifices as well as the MB and P angles were significantly higher in the presence of an MB2 canal (P < .05). A binary logistic regression model revealed that MB-distobuccal and MB-P distances were significant in the presence of an MB2 canal (P < .05). Receiver operating characteristic analysis indicated that MB-P distance had acceptable diagnostic accuracy for the prediction of MB2 canal presence. Sensitivity (specificity) calculated from the MB-P distances of 4.0, 4.5, and 5.0 mm were 89.2% (36.5%), 76.9% (58.4%), and 44.4% (71.4%), respectively.ConclusionsMB-P interorifice distance is a strong predictor of the presence of the MB2 canal in maxillary second molars with fused roots.     

The influence of the surgical operating microscope in locating the mesiolingual canal orifice: a laboratory analysis

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of using the surgical operating microscope (SOM) for detection of the mesiolingual (ML) canal orifice in extracted first maxillary permanent molars. One hundred and eight human first maxillary permanent molars were randomly selected and mounted onto a dental chair mannequin. Conventional access cavity was prepared and an attempt was made to locate the mesiolingual canal orifice using only a sharp explorer, a mirror and a #10 K-file. A mesiolingual canal orifice was either located or not located. If not located, the teeth were then evaluated by using a surgical operating microscope (SOM). The mesiobuccal roots of all teeth where the ML canal orifice had not been located were sectioned in an axial plane and the sections were explored with an adjunctive use of the SOM at a 25 X magnification. ML canal orifices were detected in 58 teeth using only a sharp explorer, a mirror and #10 K-file. In the remaining 50 teeth, 37 ML canal orifices were located by using the SOM and 3 ML canal orifices were located after root sectioning. In 10 teeth, the ML canal orifices were not found. The results of this study showed a high incidence of a ML canal in the mesiobuccal roots of the first maxillary molars (90.7%) and demonstrated that the adjunctive use of the SOM increased the ability of the dental clinician to locate the ML canal orifice.     

An SEM investigation of the mesiolingual canal in human maxillary first and second molars

The mesiolingual orifices of 21 maxillary first molars and 37 maxillary second molars were examined with the scanning electron microscope. The mesiobuccal roots of these teeth were also typed by means of a clearing technique. The results demonstrated that 90% of first molars and 70% of second molars had two canals in the mesiobuccal root. Type 3 canal systems occurred in 33% of first molars and 35% of second molars. Eighty-one percent of first molars and 59% of second molars had a separate mesiolingual canal orifice. The mean diameter of the mesiolingual orifice was 0.49 mm in first molars and 0.42 mm in second molars. The mean distance of the mesiolingual orifice from the mesiobuccal orifice was 2.31 mm in first molars and 2.06 mm in second molars. In type 3 roots, the average distance of the mesiolingual foramen to the anatomic apex was 2.0 mm for first molars and 1.45 mm for second molars.     

A study of the distobuccal root canal orifice of the maxillary second molars in Chinese individuals evaluated by cone-beam computed tomography

As is commonly understood, the root canal morphology of the maxillary molars is usually complex and variable. It is sometimes difficult to detect the distobuccal root canal orifice of a maxillary second molar with root canal treatment. No literature related to the distobuccal root canals of the maxillary second molars has been published.

Objective

To investigate the position of the distobuccal root canal orifice of the maxillary second molars in a Chinese population using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).

Material and methods

In total, 816 maxillary second molars from 408 patients were selected from a Chinese population and scanned using CBCT. The following information was recorded: (1) the number of root canals per tooth, (2) the distance between the mesiobuccal and distobuccal root canal orifice (DM), (3) the distance between the palatal and distobuccal root canal orifice (DP), (4) the angle formed by the mesiobuccal, distobuccal and palatal root canal orifices (∠ PDM). DM, DP and ∠ PDM of the teeth with three or four root canals were analyzed and evaluated.

Results

In total, 763 (93.51%) of 816 maxillary second molars had three or four root canals. The distance between the mesiobuccal and distobuccal orifice was 0.7 to 4.8 mm. 621 (81.39%) of 763 teeth were distributed within 1.5-3.0 mm. The distance between the palatal and distobuccal orifice ranged from 0.8 mm to 6.7 mm; 585 (76.67%) and were distributed within 3.0-5.0 mm. The angle (∠ PDM) ranged from 69. 4º to 174.7º in 708 samples (92.80%), the angle ranged from 90º to 140º.

Conclusions

The position of the distobuccal root canal orifice of the maxillary second molars with 3 or 4 root canals in a Chinese population was complex and variable. Clinicians should have a thorough knowledge of the anatomy of the maxillary second molars.     

The influence of dental operating microscope in locating the mesiolingual canal orifice

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of using the dental operating microscope (DOM) for detection of the mesiolingual (ML) canal orifice in extracted maxillary molars compared with unaided vision (no loupes or headlamps). STUDY DESIGN: Using a clinical simulation model system, we mounted 39 maxillary molars in a dentoform and placed them into a mannequin. After rubber dam placement and preparation of standard access, 2 attempts were made to locate the ML canal with unaided vision. Then the teeth were examined by using a DOM. Finally, all teeth were sectioned, stained, and evaluated with the DOM for actual presence of an ML canal. RESULTS: ML canal orifices were detected in 20 of the teeth with a sharp explorer and mirror. In the remaining teeth, 12 ML canal orifice were located by using the DOM. Qualitative nonparametric comparisons were used. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study indicate that the DOM provides increased opportunity for the dentist to detect canal orifices.
