INTRODUCTION CONT..
A tooth with a straight root and a
straight root canal is an exception
rather than being normal because
most teeth show some curvature of
the canal
(weinne,scheinder,kyomin).
Tomes, in 1848, called such
curvatures as dilacerations
Dilaceration:
Defination

It refers to an angulation or a bend
or a curve in the root or crown of
formed tooth or a deviation or in the
linear relationship of a crown of a
tooth to its root.
Epidemiology
In most studies,prevalence of
curvature ranged between 80 to
100%. Dienya et al 2009 in a study
of 400 maxillary and mandibular 1st
molars in a Kenyan population got
91% curvature.
Dr Schaffer in Germany examined
1163 root canals and found that 980
(84%) were curved and 65% showed
an angle > 27 degrees with radii <
40 mm.
CAUSE


The condition is thought to be
due to trauma during the period
in which tooth is forming.
The result is that the position of
the calcified portion of the tooth
is changed and the remainder of
the tooth is formed at an angle
Types of curvatures
Curved canals can be:
 Gradual curvature of the canals
in the coronal,middle or apical
third;
 Acute curvature in the apical
third;
 Curvature throughout the canal;
 S-shaped root canal.
Mandibular 1st molar with GRADUAL
distal curvature of the mesial root
Maxillary molar with the DB root showing
ACUTE curvature in the apical third
Buccal curvature at the tip of a palatal root
Mandibular 1st molar with an S-curvature of the
D root
Combination of S-shaped canals and gradual
shape
THE STAIR CASE CURVE
THE DECEIVING CURVE --distal root curves lingually
THE CONSEQUENCES
1) EXCESSIVE FLARING
2) LEDGING
3) APICAL TRANSPORTATION
4) APICAL PERFORATION
SHORT OBTURATION- due to
inability to negotiate curvature
Common to all curvatures:
• Instruments break
unexpectedly
• Separated apical part
is difficult to remove
Instruments separation just
at the beginning of the curve
Missed canal in maxillary 1st
molars
Note : Canal was missed probably due to it being
hidden at the beginning of the curve
presence of lamina dura—indicates canal presence
pain
Management

Start with accurate diagnosis
preoperative radiographs taken with
parallelling technique with at least
two different views-SLOB RULE:
UPPER TEETH-normal buccal
view,then use rule MMMM
LOWER TEETH—normal buccal
view then use the rule DMMD or
use CBCT OR DIGITAL X-RAYS
Paralleling technique in the lower
jaw
Parallel periapicals

Determine the DEGREE OF curvature
Before initiation of treatment, an estimate should
be made as to the degree of curvature of canals
by seeing the radiograph, probing OR
schneiders method
The interior angle is formed by intersection of
the straight line from the orifice through coronal
portion of the root and another straight line
from apex through apical portion of canal
Take an impression of the
canal

R>160------stainless steel handfiles can be
used
R—140—160---consider precurving stainless
steel files or use rotary
R –100—140—rotary with initial glide
path;use highly flexible files with radial
lands or use rotary in straight portion and
hand files apically
R –90—100—niti hand files with high
flexibility; orifice shapers only coronally
R—90 or less—consider apicoectomy and
reverse filling,aggressive use of hand niti
