Özet:

 It is essential to undertake thorough preparation, debridement and filling of all root canals in order to achieve a clinically successful treatment outcome. A total of 525 CBCT images of both maxillary first and second molars were analyzed. The observations and measurements were positioned 1 millimeter mm apically from the pulp base to standardize the methodology for the detection of the second mesiobuccal canal MB2. To assess the distances between the canals and the relationship between the presence of MB2 and mesiobuccal MB root length, MB root length was quantified in millimeters. IBM SPSS Version 21.0 was employed for statistical analyses, with a type I error level of 5 accepted. MB2 was identified in 36.5 of the first maxillary molar 1MM and second maxillary molar 2MM teeth of the patients included in the study. When the frequency of MB2 was evaluated according to gender and right-left side, no statistically significant difference was found p0.05. When examining the relationship between the presence of MB2 and the length of the MB root, it was observed that only in the left second molars with MB2 present, the root length was slightly shorter. It is our contention that this study will furnish dentists with crucial data that will enhance the efficacy of root canal therapy for these teeth.

 Klinik olarak başarılı bir tedaviye ulaşmak için tüm kök kanallarının kapsamlı bir şekilde hazırlanması, debridmanı ve doldurulması gerekir. Hem maksillar birinci hem de ikinci molar bulunan 525 KIBT görüntüsü analiz edildi. Meziobukkal ikinci kanalın tespit metodolojisini standartlaştırmak için gözlem ve ölçümler pulpa tabanından apikal olarak 1milimetre mm konumlandırıldı. İstatistiksel analizler için IBM SPSS Version 21.0. kullanıldı ve tip I hata düzeyi 5 olarak kabul edildi.Çalışmaya dahil edilen hastaların birinci maksiller molar1MM ve ikinci maksiller molar2MM dişlerinin genel olarak 36.5inde MB2 kanalı tespit edilmiştir. MB2 kanalının cinsiyete ve sağ-sol tarafa göre görülme sıklığı değerlendirildiğinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık olmadığı saptanmıştır p0.05. Kanallar arasındaki mesafeler ve MB2 varlığının MB kök uzunluğuyla ilişkisini değerlendirmek için MB kök uzunluğu mm olarak ölçülmüştür. MB2 varlığının MB kök uzunluğuyla arasındaki ilişkiye bakıldığında sadece sol ikinci molar dişte MB2 si olanlarda bir miktar düşük ölçülmüştür. Bu çalışmanın diş hekimlerine söz konusu dişlere yapılan kanal tedavisinin başarısının artması konusunda önemli verileri sunacağını düşünmekteyiz.
