CONE BEAM COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY EVALUATION AND ENDODONTIC TREATMENT OF MANDIBULAR SECOND MOLAR WITH FOUR ROOTS: A CASE REPORT

Abstract

Due to having thorough knowledge on the root canal anatomy and the variations will increase the success of the root canal treatment. Although its most common configuration of the mandibular second molars is having two roots and three root canals. This report presents the endodontıc treatment of a four rooted mandibular second molar, diagnosed with the assistance of cone beam computed tomography

Keywords

• Mandibular second molar, cone beam computed tomography

DÖRT KÖKLÜ ALT İKİNCİ BÜYÜK AZI DİŞİNİN KONİK IŞINLI BİLGİSAYARLI TOMOGRAFİ İLE DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ VE ENDODONTİK TEDAVİSİ OLGU SUNUMU

Abstract

Kök kanal anatomisi ile ilgili yeterli bilgiye sahip olmak kök kanal tedavisinin başarısını arttırmaktadır. Alt ikinci büyük azı dişlerinde kök kanal anatomisiyle ilgili birçok konfigürasyon gözlense de bu dişler çoğunlukla 2 köklü ve 3 kanallıdır. Bu raporda 4 köklü 4 kanallı bir alt ikinci büyük azı dişinin kök kanal tedavisi 3 boyutlu görüntüleme tekniklerinden konik ışınlı bilgisayarlı tomografi yardımı ile sunulmuştur.

Keywords

• Alt ikinci büyük azı, konik ışınlı bilgisayarlı tomografi
