Abstrakt: Brief Background (1) To evaluate the correlation between the inter-orificial distance between the ML & MB orifices in permanent mandibular first molar and the degree of canal curvature (2) The correlation between the inter-orificial distance and prevalence of root canals configuration according to Vertucci's classification. Materials and Methods One hundred mandibular first molars were selected for the study. Teeth were decoronated using a diamond disc under water cooling. Teeth were radiographed in buccolingual(Proximal view) with 15 number K file placed in ML & MB canals for accessing the canal configuration and canal curvature. Sectioned tooth were viewed under stereomicroscope at 10X magnification. Data collected was statistically analyzed. Results Pearson's correlation with SPSSV21.0 software was performed. Results showed that there was very small negative correlation between the inter-orificial distance and MB & ML canal curvature respectively. But there was a significant effect (p=.006<.005) of the inter-orificial distance in predicting the type of canal configuration. Summary and Conclusions Within the limitations of the study it can be concluded that there is statistically significant correlation between the inter-orificial distance and the type of canal configuration but there is no statistically significant correlation between the inter-orificial distance and the canal curvature in permanent mandibular first molar in Indian (North) population.
