Morphometric Study of the Dental Roots of Permanent Lower Anterior Teeth in Brazilian Individuals

The knowledge of dental morphometry, especially of its radicular portion, is of great importance for certain dental specialties, such as, endodonty. Regarding the permanent lower anterior teeth we know that its morphology and root length, are variable. The aim of this study was to analyze the averag...
