Using a computer program to measure root canal curves in lower back teeth
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study uses a computer program (deep learning model) to look at CBCT scans and measure the curve of root canals in lower back teeth. It may help dentists plan root canal treatments more accurately, and you could participate if you already have a scan or need one.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- You have a cone-beam CT (CBCT) scan of your lower back teeth (or you can get one)
- Your lower back teeth have fully formed roots
- The scan does not have metal objects, implants, or blurring that could get in the way
- You have not had a root canal treatment or a post (a small rod) in those teeth, and no tooth decay in the root or unusual root shapes

This study looks at detailed 3D scans of upper back teeth (molars) to understand the shape of the root canals that dentists treat during root canal therapy. It aims to help dentists better treat these teeth.
This study uses artificial intelligence and 3D dental imaging to check if any root canals were missed during previous root canal treatment on lower back teeth. It may help find hidden problems and guide better treatment.
This trial tests whether artificial intelligence can spot problems in root canal treatments seen on special X-rays (CBCT) compared to regular X-rays. If the AI finds an issue, a retreatment is done.
This study uses 3D dental scans to look at how often Egyptian people have extra root canals in their lower back teeth. It helps dentists know what to look for during treatment.
This study uses artificial intelligence to help dentists see and understand C-shaped root canals on 3D dental X-rays, which can be tricky to treat. If you're 18 or older and have had a CBCT scan of your teeth, this research might help improve root canal treatments.
This study uses existing 3D dental X-ray images to train an artificial intelligence system to better measure the length, shape, and curves of root canals. This could help dentists plan root canal treatments more accurately in the future.
