A preliminary assessment of a new dedicated endodontic software for use with CBCT images to evaluate the canal complexity of mandibular molars
Aim To investigate in vivo the complexity of canals
within mesial roots of mandibular molars using 3D
EndoTM software linked to CBCT images.
Methodology The CBCT images of 100 mandibular
first molars were analysed using the 3D EndoTM
software. The number of canals in the mesial roots,
the presence of apical confluences, the canal lengths
and the canal configurations using Vertucci’s classification
were evaluated in buccolingual (BL) and
mesiodistal (MD) views. The software allowed the
