INTERNAL
ANATOMY
Data generated from classical studies demonstrated
that the complexity of the internal and external
anatomy of teeth required the creation of a
classification system.
Appreciable knowledge of the morphology of this ‘small zone’ and its variance, ability to interpret it
correctly in radiograph, and to ‘feel’ it through tactile sensation during instrumentation are essential for an
effective rendering of the treatment of root canals.
THE ROOT
APEX
Anatomy of the apical third
INTRODUCTION
✓ Morphologically-most complex region
✓ Therapeutically-most challenging zone
✓ Prognostically- most important part
✓ Radiographically-most obscure and
unclear area
Thorough comprehension of apical region
of tooth
is essential to determine the working length
and working width to the most accurate
position biologically .
Scrupulous understanding and knowledge
of the root apex is also a requisite to
perform a successful endodontic surgical
procedure.
A detailed knowledge of the apical part of
the root canal system is vital as it is a
common area for procedural errors during
nstrumentation
Significance of apical third
• The main problems associated with apical part of root
are its variability and unpredictability. Because of great
variation in size and shape, problems may occur during
the endodontic treatment.
• The root canal treatment of apical part of root is
difficult sometimes because of presence of accessory and
lateral canals, pulp stones, varying amounts of irregular
secondary dentin and areas of resorption.
• Most of curvatures occur in apical third, so one has
to be very careful while canal preparation.
• Obturation should end at apical constriction so as to
have optimal results of treatment.
• Apical 3 mm of root is generally resected during
endodontic surgery in order to eliminate canal
aberrations.
ANATOMY OF ROOT APEX
(Kuttler’s studies)
A.Anatomic apex
B.Apical constriction (minor diameter)
F. Apical foramen
The mean distance between the major and minor diameters
0.5 mm in a young person and 0.67 mm in an older individual.
The increased length in older individuals is due to the increased
buildup of cementum
GREEN(1955 1956 1960)-
Major apical foramen are situated directly at
the apex more frequently in maxillary
centrals, laterals, cuspids, first premolars and
mandibular second
Premolars
In the maxillary molars and all the
mandibular teeth with the exception of the
2nd PM, the main apical foramina coincide
with the apexes less frequently.
Anatomy of Apical Canal
According to Kuttler, the narrowest diameter of
the canal is definitely not at the site of exiting of the
canal from the tooth but usually occurs within the dentin,
just prior to the initial layers of cementum.
He referred to this position as the minor diameter
of the canal, although others call it the apical constriction.
The diameter of the canal at the site of exiting from the
tooth (major diameter) was found to be approximately
twice as wide as minor diameter. This means that the
longitudinal view of the canal as a tapering funnel to the
tip of the root is incorrect.
Topography of the apical constriction
(DUMMER CLASSIFICATION)
1. TYPICAL SINGLE CONSTRICTION
2. TAPERING CONSTRICTION WITH THE NARROWEST PORTION NEAR THE ACTUAL APEX
3. SEVERAL CONSTRICTIONS

Apical constriction is significantly shorter from radiographic apex
▪When heavy stress is placed on tooth, thickened amount of cementum is
elaborated, increasing the area of periodontal attachment and strengthening the
supporting mechanism - this increased deposition of cementum is in response to
function and is known as hypercementosis (hypertrophy).

Open Apex
Endodontic management of the pulpless,
permanent teeth with wide open blunder buss
apex offers dentists a most difficult condition
to treat.
Problem of open apex - the open apex occurs
when trauma or caries cause pulpal exposure
prior to the completion of root development.
An open apex refer to absence of sufficient root
development to provide a conical taper to the
canal - “Blunderbuss” canal.
Since it is necessary to seal the apex to gain
endodontic success, it is physically impossible to
achieve this objective through ordinary procedure
in open apex cases. www.indiandentalacademy.com
Canal
Morphologies
Shape of the Canals -Torabineajad
6 different shapes have been noted
1. •Round
2. •Oval
3. •Deep oval
4. •Bowling pin
5. •Kidney bean
6. •Hour glass
Canal
Morphologies
They include round, ribbon or figure eight, ovoid, bowling pin, kidney bean, and C shape.
With the exception of the round morphologic shape, each presents unique problems f
or adequate cleaning and shaping.
A, Round. B, Ribbon-shaped (hourglass). C, Ovoid.
D, Bowling pin. E, Kidney bean-shaped. F, C-shaped.
It contains pulp or pulpally derived tissue and acts as store house for bacteria
Types
Type•I
Incomplete isthmus; faint
communication between two
canals.
Type• II
Characterized by two canals with
definite connection between
them.
Type• III
Very short complete isthmus
between two canals.
Types. IV
Complete or incomplete isthmus
between two or more canals.
Type. V
Marked by two or three canal
openings without visibleconnections
According to Curvature
(Root Canal Classes)
When tooth erupts
into oral cavity Its apex Is not
Completely formed
this slow Bodily movement of the incompletely
formed tooth is the cause of Curvatures in the
apical third of the root
as the tooth becomes functional it is
subjected to Biting stresses which may
move the tooth mesially
Curvature formation
Root Canal Curvatures
SCHNEIDER‘ sclassification on the basis of degree
of curvature
➢ Straight: 5 ̊or less
➢Moderate: 10°-20°
➢Severe: 25°-70
Introduction
“A thorough understanding of the complexity of the root canal system
is essential for understanding the principles and problems of
shaping and cleaning, for determining the apical limits and
dimensions of canal preparations, and for performing successful
microsurgical procedures”
Data generated from classical studies demonstrated
that the complexity of the internal and external
anatomy of teeth required the creation of a
classification system.

ROOT CANALS (PULP CANALS)
Root canals (pulp canals) are the portions of the pulp cavity located within
the root(s) of a tooth. Root canals connect to the pulp chamber through
canal orifices on the floor of the pulp chamber, and pulp canals open to the
outside of the tooth through openings called apical foramina (singular
foramen) most commonly located at or near the root apex. The shape and
number of root canals in any one root have been divided into four major
anatomic configurations or types.
Introduction
Weine et al. (1969) were the first authors to categorize root canal
configurations within a single root.
Type I
(1-1)
Type II
(2-1)
Type III
(2-2)
Type IV
(1-2)
Later, Weine (1982) added an
additional type to his system.
Using Roman numbers, configurations were
classified into 3 types according to the pattern of
division of the main root canal along its course
from the pulp chamber to the root apex.
Introduction
In 1974, Vertucci et al. identified more
complex canal systems in the study of 200
maxillary second premolars using the clearing
technique
Introduction
Using Roman numbers, authors
reported a total of 8 configuration types
according to the pattern of division of the main
root canal along its course from the pulp
chamber to the root apex
Introduction
Despite these efforts to systematically describe the diversity of canal
configurations, additional types of canal morphologies have been reported in
different populations.
Introduction
Ahmed HMA, Versiani MA, De-Deus G, Dummer PMH. A new system for classifying root and root canal morphology. International Endodontic Journal 2016
Recently, based on previous reports and anatomical studies using micro-CT technology,
Versiani & Ordinola-Zapata (2015) were able to identify 37 types of root canal configuration.
In summary, the most used
classification systems are
unable to categorize the
diversity of root canal
configurations as reported in
the literature.
Introduction
• Root canal curvature (Schneider 1971, Pruett et al. 1997)
• Canal bifurcation and root fusion (Vertucci 2005)
• Accessory canals and apical ramifications (De Deus 1975)
• Dens invaginatus (Oehlers 1957)
• C-shaped canals (Melton et al. 1991, Fan et al. 2004, Kato et al. 2014)
• Taurodontism (Shaw 1928, Jafarzadeh et al. 2008)
• Supernumerary roots (Christie et al. 1991, Carlsen & Alexandersen 2000, Song et al. 2010)
• And others
Exclusion Criteria
Literature already has many comprehensive classifications categorizing several morphological
aspects and developmental anomalies of the teeth. Therefore, including the following
anatomical variations in the root and root canal system:
Despite such information could be useful, the benefits of any new system must be the
simplicity, so that it can be adopted universally!
Weine’s Classification
Type I: A single canal from pulp chamber to the apex.
Type II: Two separate canals leaving the chamber, but merging short of the canal terminus to form a single
canal.
Type III: Two distinct canals from pulp chamber to the canal terminus.
Type IV: A single canal leaving the chamber and dividing into two separate canals at the canal terminus.
Vertucci’s Classification
Type I: A single canal from pulp chamber to the canal terminus.
Type II: Two separate canals leaving the chamber, but merging short of the canal terminus to form a
single canal.
Type III: A single canal that divides into two and subsequently merges to exit as one.
Type IV: Two distinct canals from pulp chamber to the canal terminus.
Vertucci’s Classification (cont.)
Type V: A single canal leaving the chamber and dividing into two separate canals at the canal
terminus.
Type VI: Two separate canals leaving the pulp chamber, merging in the body of the root, and
dividing again into two distinct canals short of the canal terminus.
Type VII: A single canal that divides, merges and exits into two distinct canals short of the canal
terminus.
Type VIII: Three distinct canals from pulp chamber to the canal terminus.

Appreciable knowledge of the morphology of this ‘small zone’ and its variance, ability to interpret it correctly in radiograph, and to ‘feel’ it through tactile sensation during instrumentation are essential for an effective rendering of the treatment of root canals. THE ROOT APEX Anatomy of the apical third
  • 13.
  • 14. INTRODUCTION ✓ Morphologically-most complex region ✓ Therapeutically-most challenging zone ✓ Prognostically- most important part ✓ Radiographically-most obscure and unclear area
  • 15. Thorough comprehension of apical region of tooth is essential to determine the working length and working width to the most accurate position biologically . Scrupulous understanding and knowledge of the root apex is also a requisite to perform a successful endodontic surgical procedure. A detailed knowledge of the apical part of the root canal system is vital as it is a common area for procedural errors during nstrumentation
  • 16.
  • 17. Significance of apical third • The main problems associated with apical part of root are its variability and unpredictability. Because of great variation in size and shape, problems may occur during the endodontic treatment. • The root canal treatment of apical part of root is difficult sometimes because of presence of accessory and lateral canals, pulp stones, varying amounts of irregular secondary dentin and areas of resorption. • Most of curvatures occur in apical third, so one has to be very careful while canal preparation. • Obturation should end at apical constriction so as to have optimal results of treatment. • Apical 3 mm of root is generally resected during endodontic surgery in order to eliminate canal aberrations.
  • 18. ANATOMY OF ROOT APEX (Kuttler’s studies) A.Anatomic apex B.Apical constriction (minor diameter) F. Apical foramen The mean distance between the major and minor diameters 0.5 mm in a young person and 0.67 mm in an older individual. The increased length in older individuals is due to the increased buildup of cementum

  • 22. GREEN(1955 1956 1960)- Major apical foramen are situated directly at the apex more frequently in maxillary centrals, laterals, cuspids, first premolars and mandibular second Premolars In the maxillary molars and all the mandibular teeth with the exception of the 2nd PM, the main apical foramina coincide with the apexes less frequently.
  • 23. Anatomy of Apical Canal According to Kuttler, the narrowest diameter of the canal is definitely not at the site of exiting of the canal from the tooth but usually occurs within the dentin, just prior to the initial layers of cementum. He referred to this position as the minor diameter of the canal, although others call it the apical constriction. The diameter of the canal at the site of exiting from the tooth (major diameter) was found to be approximately twice as wide as minor diameter. This means that the longitudinal view of the canal as a tapering funnel to the tip of the root is incorrect.

  • 41. ▪When heavy stress is placed on tooth, thickened amount of cementum is elaborated, increasing the area of periodontal attachment and strengthening the supporting mechanism - this increased deposition of cementum is in response to function and is known as hypercementosis (hypertrophy).
  • 42. RESORBED APEX caused due to advanced inflammation at the periapex resorption of cementum and dentin and widening of apical foramen WL determination ,preparation and condensation of gutta- percha is difficult- Preparation should stop 1-2mm short of radiographic apex

  • 45. BLUNDERBUSS APEX newly erupted tooth showing an incompletely formed root having a wide canal and the pulp may get necrosed due to caries or trauma and may require root canal standard instrumentation and obturation techniques are not favorable
  • 46. Open Apex Endodontic management of the pulpless, permanent teeth with wide open blunder buss apex offers dentists a most difficult condition to treat. Problem of open apex - the open apex occurs when trauma or caries cause pulpal exposure prior to the completion of root development. An open apex refer to absence of sufficient root development to provide a conical taper to the canal - “Blunderbuss” canal. Since it is necessary to seal the apex to gain endodontic success, it is physically impossible to achieve this objective through ordinary procedure in open apex cases. www.indiandentalacademy.com

Introduction “A thorough understanding of the complexity of the root canal system is essential for understanding the principles and problems of shaping and cleaning, for determining the apical limits and dimensions of canal preparations, and for performing successful microsurgical procedures”
  • 72. Data generated from classical studies demonstrated that the complexity of the internal and external anatomy of teeth required the creation of a classification system.

  • 74. ROOT CANALS (PULP CANALS) Root canals (pulp canals) are the portions of the pulp cavity located within the root(s) of a tooth. Root canals connect to the pulp chamber through canal orifices on the floor of the pulp chamber, and pulp canals open to the outside of the tooth through openings called apical foramina (singular foramen) most commonly located at or near the root apex. The shape and number of root canals in any one root have been divided into four major anatomic configurations or types.
  • 75. Introduction Weine et al. (1969) were the first authors to categorize root canal configurations within a single root. Type I (1-1) Type II (2-1) Type III (2-2) Type IV (1-2) Later, Weine (1982) added an additional type to his system. Using Roman numbers, configurations were classified into 3 types according to the pattern of division of the main root canal along its course from the pulp chamber to the root apex.
  • 76. Introduction In 1974, Vertucci et al. identified more complex canal systems in the study of 200 maxillary second premolars using the clearing technique
  • 77. Introduction Using Roman numbers, authors reported a total of 8 configuration types according to the pattern of division of the main root canal along its course from the pulp chamber to the root apex
  • 78. Introduction Despite these efforts to systematically describe the diversity of canal configurations, additional types of canal morphologies have been reported in different populations.
  • 79. Introduction Ahmed HMA, Versiani MA, De-Deus G, Dummer PMH. A new system for classifying root and root canal morphology. International Endodontic Journal 2016 Recently, based on previous reports and anatomical studies using micro-CT technology, Versiani & Ordinola-Zapata (2015) were able to identify 37 types of root canal configuration.
  • 80. In summary, the most used classification systems are unable to categorize the diversity of root canal configurations as reported in the literature. Introduction
  • 81. • Root canal curvature (Schneider 1971, Pruett et al. 1997) • Canal bifurcation and root fusion (Vertucci 2005) • Accessory canals and apical ramifications (De Deus 1975) • Dens invaginatus (Oehlers 1957) • C-shaped canals (Melton et al. 1991, Fan et al. 2004, Kato et al. 2014) • Taurodontism (Shaw 1928, Jafarzadeh et al. 2008) • Supernumerary roots (Christie et al. 1991, Carlsen & Alexandersen 2000, Song et al. 2010) • And others Exclusion Criteria Literature already has many comprehensive classifications categorizing several morphological aspects and developmental anomalies of the teeth. Therefore, including the following anatomical variations in the root and root canal system: Despite such information could be useful, the benefits of any new system must be the simplicity, so that it can be adopted universally!
  • 82. Weine’s Classification Type I: A single canal from pulp chamber to the apex. Type II: Two separate canals leaving the chamber, but merging short of the canal terminus to form a single canal. Type III: Two distinct canals from pulp chamber to the canal terminus. Type IV: A single canal leaving the chamber and dividing into two separate canals at the canal terminus.
  • 83. Vertucci’s Classification Type I: A single canal from pulp chamber to the canal terminus. Type II: Two separate canals leaving the chamber, but merging short of the canal terminus to form a single canal. Type III: A single canal that divides into two and subsequently merges to exit as one. Type IV: Two distinct canals from pulp chamber to the canal terminus.
  • 84. Vertucci’s Classification (cont.) Type V: A single canal leaving the chamber and dividing into two separate canals at the canal terminus. Type VI: Two separate canals leaving the pulp chamber, merging in the body of the root, and dividing again into two distinct canals short of the canal terminus. Type VII: A single canal that divides, merges and exits into two distinct canals short of the canal terminus. Type VIII: Three distinct canals from pulp chamber to the canal terminus.
