INTRODUCTION CONT..INTRODUCTION CONT..
A tooth with a straight root and a A tooth with a straight root and a straight root canal is an exception straight root canal is an exception rather than being normal because rather than being normal because most teeth show some curvature of most teeth show some curvature of the canal the canal (weinne,scheinder,kyomin(weinne,scheinder,kyomin).).
Tomes, in 1848, called such Tomes, in 1848, called such curvatures as dilacerationscurvatures as dilacerations

CAUSECAUSE
The condition is thought to be The condition is thought to be due to trauma during the period due to trauma during the period in which tooth is forming. in which tooth is forming.
The result is that the position of The result is that the position of the calcified portion of the tooth the calcified portion of the tooth is changed and the remainder of is changed and the remainder of the tooth is formed at an anglethe tooth is formed at an angle
Types of curvaturesTypes of curvatures
Curved canals can beCurved canals can be:: Gradual curvature of the canals Gradual curvature of the canals

Start with accurate diagnosisStart with accurate diagnosis
preoperative radiographs taken with parallelling technique with at least two different views-SLOB RULE:
UPPER TEETH-normal buccal view,then use rule MMMM
LOWER TEETH—normal buccal view then use the rule DMMD or use CBCT OR DIGITAL X-RAYS

Determine the DEGREE OF curvature
Before initiation of treatment, an estimate should be made as to the degree of curvature of canals by seeing the radiograph, probing OR schneiders method
The interior angle is formed by intersection of the straight line from the orifice through coronal portion of the root and another straight line from apex through apical portion of canal
