Abstract
Background: The objective of this study was to evaluate the morphological variations in orthodonticaly extracted maxillary first premolars.
Method: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in the ‘Department of Oral Biology at Rehman College of Dentistry, Peshawar, from June 15, 2022, to December 15, 2022’. Following ethical approval, a total of 207 maxillary first premolars from individuals of both genders aged 18 and above were examined. The teeth were categorized into four groups based on root morphology. Data analysis was performed using SPSS (version 21).
Results: Among the 207 patients, 104 were female, and 103 were male, with an average age of 32.02 years (ranging from 18 to 55 years) and a standard deviation of 13.45 years. Bifurcated teeth were the most common, accounting for 42.05% of cases, followed by laminated teeth at 30.43% and single-rooted teeth at 23.18%. Only 4.34% of the patients had teeth with three roots.
Conclusion: Bifurcated andlaminated roots in maxillary first premolars are more common in our population. Morphology of maxillary first premolar shows great variation in their root configuration in different ethnicities.
