Background and Objectives: The aim of this study is assessment of the canal morphology of mandibular anterior teeth, the gender differences and between right and left side of them in adult Iraqi Kurdish people using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).
Subjects and methods: CBCT). Subjects and methods: A retro and prospective study of canal configuration of mandibular anterior teeth by CBCT of a total of 194 subjects 72 males (37.1%) and 122 females (62.9%). Mandible anterior teeth including six teeth for each of 388 central incisor, lateral incisor and canine were analyzed in the database. For classification of morphology of the root canal, Vertucci method was used.
Results: There was a non-significant difference between genders. Percentage of more than one canal was 33.1% in central incisors, 33.1% in lateral incisors, and 9.2% in canines. The most common root canal morphology type in all mandibular anterior teeth was type I. Type III was the second most common type in mandibular incisors. Type V was the second most common type in mandibular canines.
Conclusion: Canal configuration is subjected to racial and ethnic variations and studying it is important for dental practitioner to understand the variations in root canal morphology of anterior teeth in order to overcome problems when performing endodontic treatment. More studies are needed to further define morphological characteristics of roots of mandibular anterior teeth in Kurdish population.
