Article Synopsis
- * Sixty teeth were divided into five groups to analyze different conditions of foraminal enlargement, and scanning electron microscopy was used to assess changes in foramen shape.
- * Results showed significant differences in foramen wear and shape transformation among all groups compared to the control, with enlargement creating round-shaped foramina, indicating that the files effectively change the foramen's characteristics.

Article Synopsis
- * A total of 800 scans were analyzed, revealing significant associations between tooth position and apical fenestration, particularly notable in the first molars of the upper jaw, where higher frequencies were found in specific root areas.
- * The research indicated that apical fenestration had a negative correlation with certain tooth positions (like mesial inclination) but a positive correlation with others (like lingual inclination), enhancing understanding of how tooth positioning influences this defect.
