Abstract in English
Our study focused on the relationship between root
Trunk length prevalence, Types of root trunk and furcation involvement in
molars.
Statistical results presented short root trunks in maxillary (1st &
2nd) molars were located buccally , whereas the long root trunks is located
mesially. Also for Mand. (1st & 2nd ) molar short root trunks were found
buccally but the long root trunks where found lingually and the lingual root
trunks were longer in mand, 2nd than mand 1st molars.
