Abstract

Cone-beam computed tomographic (CBCT) imaging is a useful method for endodontic therapy. The aim of this study was to identify morphology of second lower molar root canal . CBCT of 346 patients were used. Results were as follows: Number of roots is 3 (1,7%), 2 (97,8%), 1 (0,5%). No difference on the right and left side. 47,7 % of the mesio-bucal root teeth have only 1 root canal, women (56,4%) higher than men (36,1%), the difference . 96,4% distal roots have only one canal. The morphology of the C-shaped canal accounts for 21,7%, of which the C1 form accounts for 14,2% and C2 accounts for 5,5%. No difference between right and left, but more common in women (24,9%) than in men (17,5%).
