  • Comparison of second mesiobuccal canal prevalence of maxillary molar teeth by gender and age in a Turkish subpopulation: A cone-beam computed tomography study

    Aim: The purpose of this study is to examine the distribution of second mesiobuccal (MB2) canal frequency according to age and gender in the maxillary molars of individuals in South-eastern Anatolia, Turkey, using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). It also seeks to inform dentists who perform root canal treatments about the prevalence of additional canals that affect the success of treatments. Methods: 300 patients who had already had CBCT images taken were grouped by gender and age. A total of 1,034 maxillary molar teeth were evaluated in the axial section. The chi-square test was used to evaluate the morphological differences between different age groups and genders. Results: The total frequency of MB2 canals was found to be 44.4% in 300 people (42.5% in women; 47.2% in men). In addition, the frequency of MB2 canals was 59.2% (n = 506) in maxillary first molars and 30.4% (n = 528) in maxillary second molars. On the basis of the right and left jaws, the incidence of MB2 canals was 44.2% in the right jaw and 44.9% in the left jaw. No statistically significant differences were found between gender and age. Conclusion: It is concluded that using CBCT will increase the detection of the presence of additional canals, increasing dentists’ success rates in performing root canal treatments. Furthermore, it has been observed that using new technologies and spending more time in the detection of MB2 canals will increase the success of root canal treatments in maxillary molar teeth.   How to cite this article: Akay A, Öz H, Adıgüzel Ö, Erkan Akay S.
