OBJECTIVES: This study aims to analysis the distribution of root canal isthmuses (RCIs), and its relationship with canal morphology in the mesio-buccal roots of maxillary first molars in children aged 9-12 in a Chinese sub-population. METHODS: 494 healthy, untreated maxillary first molars with fully developed mesio-buccal roots were examined. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans were acquired as part of diagnosis and treatment plannings unrelated to the present study. The images were evaluated to identify the canal morphology of mesio-buccal roots according to Vertucci's classification. A map-reading strategy was used to identify RCIs. RESULTS: In mesio-buccal roots, the most common canal morphology was type Ⅳ (38.5 %). The frequency of type I (1.6 %) was much lower than adults. RCIs were found in 92.5 % mesio-buccal roots. The RCIs which began in the cervical third and ended in the middle third (CT-MT) (31.0 %) had the highest frequency. In type III, the RCIs which began and ended in the middle third (MT-MT) (30.3 %) were most common. For type V, 30.8 % RCIs began in the cervical third and ended in the apical third (CT-AT). No significant differences were found between sexes and sides (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: For children aged 9-12, the frequency of type I canals was much lower in mesio-buccal roots of maxillary permanent first molars, while the frequency of RCIs was higher than adults, especially in the apical third. The distribution of RCIs had its own characteristics in each canal type, closely related to the structures.
