Abstract

Background: Using the CBCT, this technique has the ability to identify the root canal morphology asdetailed as using the root canal staining and other clearing techniques that in the past have been of highervalue to the other conventional techniques that can be implemented to give a three-dimensional perspectiveof the complete morphological details. With this, analysing the variation in root canal morphology of humanmaxillary second premolar between different gender in Chennai population can be done.Methods:One hundred Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) images from different patients areselected randomly from Department of Oral Radiology of Saveetha Dental College and Hospital, India.All the CBCT images of patients are examined for the inclusion criteria in maxillary second premolarsbetween different genders based on Vertucci classification. All root canal configurations of maxillary secondpremolars between different genders are investigated and compared withVertucci Classification.Conclusion: Of all the 100 maxillary second premolars, the most common type of canal configuration forboth the genders is Type I (41%), Type III (22%), and Type V (22%). In females, the most common type ofcanal configuration discovered is Type I (35%), Type III (63.6%) and Type V (83.3%). In males, the mostcommon type of canal configuration determined is Type I (65%) and Type III (36.4%).

Abstract

Background: This study was done to evaluate the importance of applying Berry’s index in bite markanalysis.With that, it is able to highlight the usefulness of Berry’s index in aiding the analysis of bite markof an individual.Methods: The study was conducted among 60 students between the ages of 18-30 from Saveetha DentalCollege, Chennai. The data that was obtained was then tabulated and statistically analyzed.Conclusion: The results of the study revealed that the widths of both maxillary central incisors and thebizygomatic width were higher in males when compared to females. A positive correlation can be found inmales compared to females in regard to both of the widths obtained. Berry’s index is a useful tool of highforensic value and can be used to help in the identification of an individual’s facial proportions based on thecalculated width of the central incisors. Thus, it can be of correlation to that of forensic facial reconstruction.

Abstract

Background: Using the CBCT, this technique has the ability to identify the proper dimensions of themesiodistal width of the tooth and other clearing techniques that in the past have been of higher value tothe other conventional techniques that can be implemented to give a three-dimensional perspective of thecomplete morphological details. With this, analysing the mesiodistal width of mandibular central incisorsbetween male and female based on CBCT can be accomplished.Methods: One hundred Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) images from different patients areselected randomly from Department of Oral Radiology of Saveetha Dental College and Hospital, India.All the CBCT images of patients are examined for the inclusion criterias in the mesiodistal width of themandibular incisors between different genders. All mesiodistal width of mandibular central incisors betweendifferent genders are investigated and compared.Conclusion:When both the genders were compared in terms of the number of canals, there was a significantdifference seen (p-value: 0.000002208). With the p-value calculated, it was found that there was a significantdifference between the genders in terms of the distance between the occlusal pit to the pulp chamber (p-value:<0.0000001). Overall, there is no significant difference between the two genders at the level of the cervicalthird (p-value: 0.6554).
