Abstract

The success of endodontic treatment depends on well-defined knowledge of root canal anatomy and root canal disinfection, shape and filling for the all root canals. Maxillary central incisors are well known to have usually a single root with a single root canal. However maxillary central incisors have been reported having 1, 2, 3 and even 4 root canals. Therefore, it’s important that clinicians consider the existence of anatomical variations of root canal systems. In this case report, two maxillary central incisors with one root, two canals shown Type V canal morphology has been described. Clinicians have to perform careful clinical and radiologic investigation in case of anatomical variation probability.

Tip V kanal morfolojisi gösteren maksiller santral keser dişlerin endodontik tedavisi: vaka raporu

Abstract

Kök kanal tedavisinin başarısı, kök kanal anatomisinin detaylı bilinmesi ile kök kanal sisteminin temizlenmesi, şekillendirilmesi ve bunları takiben doldurulması işlemlerine bağlıdır. Maksiller santral keserlerin tek kök ve tek kanal sistemi içerdiği bilinmektedir. Ancak 1, 2, 3 ve hatta 4 kanal yapısı gösteren maksiller santral keser dişlerin varlığı rapor edilmiştir. Bu nedenle klinisyenin anatomik varyasyon gösteren kök kanallarını bulması, bu anatomik varyasyonları bilmesiyle mümkündür. Bu olgu raporunda tek kök, iki kanala sahip Tip V kanal morfolojisi gösteren maksiller santral keser iki dişin tedavisi sunulmaktadır. Sonuç olarak, varyasyon süphesi görülen olguların klinik ve radyografik değerlendirilmelerinin dikkatli yapılması gerekmektedir
