  Objectives: To estimate the prevalence of different root canal morphological variants in maxillary first and second premolars, and to analyze differences across gender and nationality in western Saudi Arabia individuals using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) who presented for dental care during February 2021- April 2021. Methods: Maxillary first and second premolars were analyzed independently to determine the number of roots and canal configuration using Vertucci's classification. The distribution by gender and nationality was analyzed using Fisher’s exact test with Monte Carlo simulation. Inter-examiner and intra-examiner reliability were evaluated using Cohen's kappa coefficient (1.0; P<0.001 and 0.9; P<0.001, respectively). Results: Maxillary first premolars were double-rooted in 57.8% and type IV was the most frequent (63.6%), followed by type II (18.3%). .. Read More»
