Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between the presence of two canals in mandibular incisors and multiple canals in mandibular premolars in the Western Uttar Pradesh population of India using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods: CBCT scans with 0.125-mm voxel size and 50 mm × 50 mm field of view of 800 patients were evaluated for the parameters; a number of canals, root canal configurations (according to Vertucci's classification), unilateral/bilateral occurrences, and correlation between presence of two canal configuration in mandibular incisors and multiple canals (>1 canal) in mandibular premolars. The data obtained were subjected to statistical analysis using the SPSS statistical program version 22.0 using the Chi-square test. The significance level was set as 5%. Results: According to the current analysis, the prevalence of mandibular incisors with one canal was 68.1% and two canals were 31.9% whereas in mandibular premolars prevalence of one canal was 71.5%, two canals were 27.2%, and three canals were 1.3%. The incidence of Vertucci type I canal configuration (68.1% mandibular incisors and 71.5% mandibular premolars) was more prevalent than the other types. The incidence of C-shaped canals was 2.6%. The prevalence of bilateral occurrence of the same canal configuration was 16.6%. A positive correlation was found between the presence of two canals in mandibular incisors with multiple canals in mandibular premolars (20.4%). Conclusion: The root canal morphology of mandibular premolar teeth of the Western Uttar Pradesh Indian population is complex. Two canals in mandibular incisors are frequently associated with multiple canals in mandibular premolars. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
