July 11, 2025 updated by: Baheej Ghazi H Alhazmi, Future University in Egypt
Accuracy of Artificial Intelligence Technology to Detect the Presence of Missed Canals of Endodontically Treated Mandibular Second Molar : Diagnostic Accuracy Experimental Study
Aims to detect the Accuracy of Artificial Intelligence Technology in Detecting the Presence of Missed Canals of Endodontically Treated Mandibular Second Molar.
Will Artificial intelligence software, CBCT and Clinical visual examination with dental operating microscope differs in the detection of presence of missed canals of endodontically treated human mandibular second molar ?

Active Comparator: Presence of missed canals
|
if Retreatment was needed, local anesthesia using 1.8 ml (one cartridge) of 4% articaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine local anesthetic solution, administered with end -loading cartridge aspirating syringe and a 27-gauge long needle.
Under rubber dam isolation, All carious tissue and existing coronal restorations were thoroughly removed using a round bur, an endodontic access cavity, canal preparation and removal of existing root canal filling, irrigation with 2.6% NAOCL and saline, determining the working length using apex locator and PA radiograph, to be 0.5 to 1 mm shorter than radiographic apex, Drying the canal with paper point and obturation to achieve a dense, well adapted Monoblock obturation.
A post-obturation periapical radiograph was taken to confirm the quality of the fill in terms of length, density, then sealed by a temporary restorative material.
