Determination of Total Length in Human Permanent Teeth - An Anthropometric Study

Abstract:

The correct endodontic treatment involves the exact determination of the working length. This is accomplished by combining several techniques: the tactile technique, X-ray with the needle or the endodontic probe in the root canal and comparing with the average tooth length.The determination of average tooth length depends on the geographic area. The current table used in practice contains the values gathered on a population group that is different than ours; the table has been made on Caucasian subjects.In conclusion, our study aims to determine the proper average values of our geographic zone, the table obtained by completing the equation of the endodontic therapy that will admit the proximity of the Romanian reality.
