Canals in upper second premolar

Vertucci and associates stated that of maxillary second premolars in their study had one canal at the apex, had two foramina, and had three foramina. Of the teeth studie 59. These clinicians also reported that when two canals join into one, the palatal canal frequently exhibits a straight-line access to the apex. The number of roots and root canals in the maxillary second premolars was recorded. A total of 2patients 1female () and 1male () received root canal treatment of maxillary second premolar.

The mean age of the patients was 32.

The average length of the teeth was 21. Concerning the canal morphology, 33. Type IV, are Type II, are Type I. The rest are pretty small percentages. The aim of this study was to investigate the number of roots and root canals in the maxillary second premolar in a group of Jordanian population.

An important consideration that must not be overlooked is the anatomic position of the mental foramen and. Two canals may be found in about of cases. The configuration of the two canals may vary with two separate canals and two exits, two canals and one common exit, one canal dividing and having two exits.

In one study, it was found that of maxillary second premolars had accessory canals. Lower central and lateral incisors - The single root of a lower incisor sometimes has canals. The maxillary second premolar is one of two teeth located in the upper jaw , laterally (away from the midline of the face) from both the maxillary first premolars of the mouth but mesial (toward the midline of the face) from both maxillary first molars. The function of this premolar is similar to that. Out of the 1males 47.

Regarding root canal morphology of the male maxillary second premolars had type I, had type II, had type IV, and 0. Mandibular molars with two canals have one distal and one mesial canal usually situated in distal and mesial roots. When there are three canals there are two mesial and one distal. Teeth with four canals have two mesial and two distal canals.

This is at variance with the studies of Greenand Vertucci et al. Maxillary second premolar are generally considered to have one canal, in the present study, this tooth had two canals in of cases. Both pulp horns, especially buccal, extend deep into the cusps. The cusps are of equal height, but the pulp horns are not.

Root Canal - How to the find MBCanal. Certain types of teeth (lower incisors, upper premolars, molars) and even specific tooth roots (mesiobuccal roots of upper first molars, distal roots of lower 1st molars) are well known for having the potential to have additional canals. Premolar teeth are named first premolar and second premolar and there are two per quadrant, or eight per adult mouth.

These quadrants split the upper and lower areas of the mouth in half and are. A branch of biology that deals with the form and structure of animals and plants.

The form and structure of an organism or any of its parts. Upper second premolars generally have a single root and one or two canals. Upper premolar teeth with three canals , with two or three roots in maxillary second premolars is quite rare.

One can locate the root canal orifices through careful observation of preoperative radiographs and examination of the pulp chamber floor under magnification. This case report presents an unusual anatomy that was detected in a maxillary second premolar. Mandibular second premolars also have a high degree of anatomic variability, but not to the same degree as mandibular first premolars. The permanent maxillary second molar: Canal number And configurations in a Tunisian population One of the major causes of failure in endodontic treatment is the impossibility of locating and treating the entire root canal system, a result of the lack of knowledge regarding the dental, internal or external anatomy.

The failure in locating the canal is major reason of recurrence of endodontic infection after obturation. Various studies have been conducted and reported three canals between 0. The facial ridge is not as prominent as that of the maxillary 1st premolar. Where two roots are present, Maxillary premolars should have a post placed in the buccal canal.

Care must be exercised in first premolars because of the mesial concavity. The wisdom tooth is fully erupted and is where the second molar should have been. This one failed and I believe it happened when posts were placed after it broke at the gum line.
