The Palato-Mesiobuccal Canal

The palato-mesiobuccal canal, a new anatomical variation of maxillary second molars with fused roots, was described for the first time in the literature by our group. In the following links you can find additional information about its morphology and clinical management:

My Book in Portuguese

 Great news! My book on Root Canal Anatomy has just been published in Portuguese. I’m so excited to share this with the Portuguese-speaking dental community!

My images in a Museum in Nuremberg

 In October 2022, I was contacted by Dr. des. Susanne Thürigen, a historian of science from the Germanisches Nationalmuseum in Nuremberg, Germany. She expressed interest in using micro-CT images of certain teeth that I had developed to be displayed in the museum's permanent exhibition on crafts and medicine. Now, the images of the root canal anatomy system, which was co-developed by myself, Frank Paqué, and Holm Reuver, are permanently on display in the Spotlight-exhibition Danger Zone in Nuremberg. It's truly an exciting achievement!
