Microcomputed tomography analysis of root canal morfology of hypomineralized permanent molars compared with healthy teeth: unveiling hidden anatomical variations
µCT analysis demonstrated distinct morphological differences between hypomineralized and healthy permanent molars, particularly regarding the number of minor apical foramina and cervical width. These findings underscore the need to consider potential root canal variations during endodontic assessment and treatment planning in MIH-affected molars.
