“…These anatomical features require careful attention during caries excavation and other restorative procedures to prevent pulp exposure ( 53 ), considering the fact that the size of the pulp chamber affects the thickness of the external tooth structure, especially in first molars and the mesio-buccal cusp of maxillary second molars ( 53 ). This is in addition to access cavity preparations during root canal treatment of primary molars, which also requires special consideration, to prevent furcal perforations ( 54 , 55 ).…”

“…The furcation area of primary molars is of special significance because of its close anatomical relationship with the follicle of the permanent successor, and thus, it is one of the main pathways for the development of pathological bone changes through chamber canals ( 40 , 41 ). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) has been used to study the furcation in primary molars ( 40 , 42 – 45 ), and permanent molars ( 43 , 46 48 ). Nonetheless, since SEM provides only topographic information of the pulp chamber floor (in addition to 2D measurements such as diameter of the chamber canal orifice), it cannot identify the type of chamber canals (either patent, blind or loop) ( 45 ).…”
