OBJECTIVES: To investigate the prevalence, unilateral/bilateral concurrency, and external morphology of permanent mandibular molars (PMMs) with radix entomolaris (RE) and radix paramolaris (RP) in a sample from Slovenia.
DESIGN: Medium field-of-view cone-beam computed tomography images of 1315 participants (681 males, 634 females) aged 13-90 years (mean age 45.5) were retrospectively examined. A total of 1363 first, 1824 second, and 1314 third PMMs were evaluated. The external morphology of the affected teeth was categorized according to Carlsen and Alexandersen's classifications.
RESULTS: The individual-level RE frequencies in the first, second, and third PMMs were 1.6%, 1.9%, and 10.1%, respectively. The respective RP frequencies were 0%, 1.8%, and 3.2%. The first PMMs exclusively exhibited type A RE morphology, whereas in the second and third PMMs, types B and AC morphologies predominated. Bilateral concurrence rates were low (0-7.1%), with the exception of type A RE in first PMMs (62.5%). RE occurrences in the first and second PMMs were correlated (odds ratio = 70.2; 95% confidence interval 17.4 -282.7; P < 0.001). In concurrent cases, the second PMM followed its anterior neighbor in expressing type A morphology, and conversely, all affected second PMMs standing next to a two-rooted first PMM exhibited non-type A morphology.
CONCLUSIONS: In this sample, the first and second PMMs exhibited low supernumerary root frequencies comparable to those of other European samples. The third PMM was most often affected. The presence of RE on the first PMM increased the possibility of its presence on the adjacent second PMM and vice versa.
