Morphometrical analysis of main and accessory canals in apical root portion of frontal teeth

The object was to to examine the deviation frequency, the distance of the major apical foramen from the anatomical apex and occurrence and number of accessory canals in the apical third of the frontal teeth roots. A total of 156 randomly chosen upper and lower permanent incisors and canines, after extraction due to periodontal disease were prepared for the investigation. Results indicate that deviation frequency was found in 60.25% of the cases and the mean distance between deviated major foramen and the anatomical root apex was 0.35mm. Accesory canals were found in 33.33% of the cases in the apical third of the root.
