This paper presents two cases of late developing supernumerary premolars. Case 1 is a female patient with nonsyndromic multiple supernumerary teeth located in the maxillary right premolar-molar region, maxillary left premolar region, and the mandibular right and left premolar regions. In this patient surgical removal of all supernumerary teeth was carried out to avoid complications during ortho...

The oral exostoses are protuberance located on the alveolar surfaces of the jawbones with nodular, flat or pedunculated shape. The purpose of this study was to highlight the variability of the morphological and clinical characteristics of torus palatinus (TP) and torus mandibularis (TM) in a sample of young and adults' Romanian people. The study was conducted on 74 participants examined in Dent...

Objective: To study the prevalence of root angulation through radiographic evaluation using panoramic radiographs and to record the extent of angulation among various teeth. Materials and methods: Panoramic radiographs of 506 patients within the age group of 18 to 70 years (196 males and 310 females) were subjected to a retrospective study for estimating the prevalence of root angulations of va...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM When reconstructing the occlusal curvatures dentists often use a 4-inch radii arc as a rough standard based on Monson spherical theory. The use of an identical radius for the curve of Spee for all patients may not be appropriate because each patient is individually different. The validity of application of this theory in the Indian population and the present study has been ...

AIMS To evaluate the reliability of Tanaka and Johnston and Moyer's (75th percentile) mixed dentition prediction methods in Kodava population sample, to formulate regression equations for predicting the mesiodistal widths of unerupted canines and premolars and to construct probability tables for the Kodava population. SETTINGS AND DESIGN Data was obtained from Kodava subjects visiting the cli...

The aim of this split-mouth experimental study was to determine (1) whether corticotomy procedures increase tooth movement and (2) the effects of a second corticotomy procedure after 4 weeks on the rate of tooth movement. The mandibular third and maxillary second premolars of five skeletally mature male foxhounds, approximately 2 years of age, were extracted. One randomly selected mandibular qu...

INTRODUCTION The purposes of this study were to determine the ideal sites for placement of orthodontic mini-implants in mandibular interradicular spaces by using computed tomography (CT) and to suggest length, diameter, and angulation of the mini-implants. METHODS CT scans were performed on 15 dry human mandibles with 1-mm tomography slices. Measurements were made at 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11 mm hei...

Objective: To determine whether the missing canals in endodontically treated single-rooted teeth with two-canals are present either buccal or lingual/palatal for Turkish subpopulation. Methods: High-quality cone-beam computed tomography scans of 1297 belonging to 782 adults over age 18 were obtained from archive a dental clinic. Within this dataset, 129 had undergone endodontic treatment and po...

Objective: The study aimed to evaluate the variations in RCM of mandibular first premolars (MFP) south Indians and also evaluated gender dimorphism contralateral symmetry pattern. Methods: 200 Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) images MFP patients above 18 years were analyzed for root canal morphology after excluding distorted images, endodontically treated tooth or fractured root. teeth care...

Aim: The current study’s goal was to employ CBCT determine the accurate root anatomy, as well canal configuration, of mandibular first and second premolars in Kashmiri Population.Materials Methods: scans data patients who were scanned for some diagnostic purposes collected. collected subjected a retrospective examination.
