“…In this study, the prevalence of CSRCs in MSMs was 47.95%, CSRCs in MSMs were more common in women, consistent with other recent studies worldwide [13,42,43,48,49]. Tooth position did not affect the prevalence of CSRCs in MSMs, and this nding was consistent with other studies [20,45,[49][50][51].…”

“…This nding was consistent with some studies [19,48,50].Patients with bilateral presence of the CSRCs in MSMs were more common than those with unilateral presence. This result was consistent with some studies [19,[49][50][51] but contradicted others [20,42,48]. The main reasons for these differences were ethnic differences and sample size.…”

“…This result contradicted a study from Brazil [42]. In the other two studies [20,48], only one patient presented CSRCs, leading to an underestimation of whether symmetry occurred. 54.55% (6/11) of the grooves were located on the lingual surface of the root.…”

“…In addition, extracted teeth often lack information about left and right tooth positions and sex [1,19]. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) provides a non-invasive 3D con rmatory diagnosis to complement conventional radiography [20]. For endodontists, CBCT is critical in the event of a treatment-related mishap, such as medullary oor perforation, root canal perforation, or instrument separation.…”

Background To investigate the prevalence, correlation, and differences of C-shaped root canals (CSRCs) morphology in permanent mandibular premolars and molars in Eastern Chinese individuals using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods A total of 8000 mandibular premolars and molars CBCT images from 1000 patients (692 females and 308 males) were collected. The prevalence, correlation, bilateral/unilateral presence, morphology of CSRCs, level of canal bifurcation, sex differences, and location of radicular grooves (RGs) were evaluated. The correlation between the prevalence of CSRCs and RGs in different tooth positions and age groups was analyzed. Results The prevalence of CSRCs in mandibular first premolars (MFPs), mandibular second premolars (MSPs), mandibular first molars (MFMs) and mandibular second molars (MSMs) were 10.25%, 0.25%, 0.55% and 47.05%, respectively. There was no correlation between the presence of CSRCs in mandibular premolars and molars. The prevalence of CSRCs in MFPs of males was higher than that in females, while CSRCs in MSMs of females were higher than that in males (P < 0.05). The bilateral symmetry presence of CSRCs in MSMs was significant but not in MFPs. RGs were predominantly found on the mesiolingual surface of premolars and the lingual surface of molars. There was no significant difference in the prevalence of CSRCs in different types of RGs in premolars. The incidence of CSRCs was significantly lower in the non-bifurcation group. Conclusions There was a high prevalence of CSRCs in MFPs and MSMs in the Eastern Chinese population, but there was no correlation. The symmetry of CSRCs was significant in MSMs but not in MFPs. The prevalence of CSRCs in MFPs of males was higher than that in females, while the prevalence of CSRCs in MSMs of females was higher than that in males. In the process of RCT of teeth with CSRCs, CBCT should be taken if necessary, and the treatment should be carried out with the aid of a microscope. Clinicians should pay special attention to CSRCs.

“…This is in accordance with earlier findings emphasizing the need for training to adequately evaluate CBCT scans [ 23 ]. When training and experience in reading and interpreting of CBCT images is lacking, delegation of the interpretation of images to an appropriately trained dento-maxillofacial radiologist should be envisaged [ 24 ].…”

Does clinical experience with dental traumatology impact 2D and 3D radiodiagnostic performance in paediatric dentists? An exploratory study

et al. 2022

Background The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of experience with traumatic dental injuries (TDI) on paediatric dentists’ performance and self-assessed confidence when radiodiagnosing traumatic dental injuries (TDI) and to explore whether this is influenced by the imaging technique used (2D versus 3D). Materials and methods Both 2D and 3D radiological images of young anterior permanent teeth having experienced dental trauma were assessed randomly by a panel of paediatric dentists using structured scoring sheets. The impact of level of experience with dental traumatology on radiological detection, identification and interpretation of lesions and on observer’s self-assessed confidence was evaluated. Findings were compared to benchmark data deriving from expert consensus of an experienced paediatric endodontologist and dentomaxillofacial radiologist. Results were analysed using generalized linear mixed modelling. Results Overall, observers performed moderately to poor, irrespective of their level of TDI experience and imaging modality used. No proof could be yielded that paediatric dentists with high TDI experience performed better than those with low experience, for any of the outcomes and irrespective of the imaging modality used. When comparing the use of 3D images with 2D images, significantly higher sensitivities for the detection and correct identification of anomalies were observed in the low experienced group (P < 0.05). This was not the case regarding interpretation of the findings. Self-assessed confidence was significantly higher in more experienced dentists, both when using 2D and 3D images (P < 0.05). Conclusion There was no proof that paediatric dentist’s higher experience with TDI is associated with better radiodiagnostic performance. Neither could it be proven that the use of Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) contributes to an improved interpretation of findings, for any experience level. More experienced dentists feel more confident, irrespective of the imaging modality used, but this does not correlate with improved performance. The overall poor performance in image interpretation highlights the importance of teaching and training in both dental radiology and dental traumatology.

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

et al. 2022

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).
