| Research Abstract |
In this study, I used high-resolution CT (MicroCT) together with the conventional histological method to investigate the development of root formation of normal and infected wistar rat maxillar first molars. MicroCT analysis indicated the significant increase of root formation with the development. While the formation of dentin and cementum was histologically detected in the infected molars, the root volume was significantly decreased compared to the normal root volume.
