RESUMO

Objective The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and micro-ultrasound technique for the treatment of three mesial canals in mandibular first molars. The three mesial canals according to Pomeranz's classification were characterized. Methods A total of 75 permanent mandibular first molars for root canal treatment were randomly selected from patients belonging to the age group of 14-60 years. After preparing the access cavity and locating the main canals, the middle mesial canal orifices in all teeth were determined with an endodontic explorer under direct vision (StageⅠ), under magnification with the aid of micro-ultrasound (Stage Ⅱ), and with the combined use of CBCT and micro-ultrasound to remove the dentin wall and calcifications (Stage Ⅲ). Results Middle mesial canals were detected in 4.0%, 18.7%, and 22.7% of the teeth in StagesⅠ-Ⅲ, respectively. Statistical analysis showed significant differences (P<0.05) between StagesⅠand Ⅱ with regard to middle mesial canal detection. The number of Stage Ⅲ was more than that of Stage Ⅱ. The difference between the two stages was no significant. Among the 17 middle mesial canals, "confluent", "fin" and "independent" anatomies were 52.9%, 35.3%, and 11.8%. Conclusion When used with adjunctive aids, including CBCT, micro-ultrasound facilitates dental clinicians in the location and treatment of middle mesial canals.
