| Beskrivelse: | To evaluate the morphology of the root canal system in maxillary and mandibular permanent anterior teeth in the Peruvian population using two classification systems and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). A retrospective descriptive study. A total of 384 CBCTs from the database of Hannyx Dentomaxillofacial Radiology Consulting were used. The CBCT model used was NEWTOM, and the images were examined in sagittal, axial, and coronal views using the NNT NewTom software. A total of 384 subjects participated in this study. According to Vertucci and the new Ahmed Classification system, Type I, ¹MI¹, was the most common type in both maxillae, followed by Type III, ¹MI¹-²-¹ .The coding ¹MI¹-²-¹-²-¹, which does not have a classification in Vertucci, was present only in the right maxillary canine and the right and left central mandibular incisors, followed by ¹MI¹-² with Type V, present in the mandibular canines. The prevalence of root canal morphology variations in the mandibular central incisors was higher in females than in males, as well as in the right maxillary canines. Younger individuals showed more anatomical variations in the root canals compared to older patients. Female patients and younger individuals have a higher prevalence of root canal variations in mandibular anterior teeth. |
