It also seeks to analyze the prevalence of these pathologies and their correlation with the sex and age of the patients. Methods: A tota...
Achieving a favorable outcome after endodontic treatment depends on a clear understanding of tooth anatomy, identification of variations, and precise root canal location. Multi-rooted mandibular molars often deviate from the expected configuration, sometimes featuring additional roots, such as radix entomolaris (RE)...
The mandibular first molar usually has a mesial root with two root canals and a distal root with one or two root canals.
