The aim of this study was to compare the root canal systems of maxillary and mandibular premolars that had a single root using radiographs and clearing samples. 142 single rooted premolars were selected and mesio-distal and bucco-lingual views were radiographed using intra-oral dental standard films. Four equally trained examiners classify the root canal types from the developed radiographs. After opening the tooth for access, it was stored in $5\%$ NaOCl to dissolve the pulp tissue. Indian ink was then injected into the pulp cavity to stain the pulp tissue. It was cleared in methyl salicylate after being decalcified with $5\%$ nitric acid for 48 hours, and the root canal type was evaluated at a magnification of $\times$ 20 using a stereomicroscope. The results are as follows ; There were statistically significant differences between the radiographs and clearing samples of the root canal types among examiners (p < 0.05). There might be differences in the root canal types among examiners when the same radiograph is used. Therefore, considering the difficulty in estimating the root canal types, clinicians need to be careful when interpreting radiographs before root canal therapy.

The purpose of this study is to examine of transparency and Corporate Social Responsibility(CSR) on financial performance and firm value. The empirical results are as follows: First, we finds that ROA showed significant effect of all transparency measures exception QAS measure and Tobin's Q showed significant effect of CITSA, SCTSA, SETR and SATSA. Second, 'Total-ROA' and 'ROA' models showed significant positive effects of lnCSR(TranD${\times}$lnCSR) and ROA, also 'Total-Tobin's Q' and 'Tobin's Q' model had same results. Consequently, this study results had that The firms with higher transparency and higher CSR exhibit better financial performance and firm value.

Eighty-two maxillary canine were injected with china ink, decalcified, cleared and used in a study, in vitro, to determine the number of root canals, the frequency and location of lateral canals, the location of apical foramens, and the curvature of root canals. The results were as follows; 1.All of the maxillary canines showed the single canals. 2. Of the 82 canals studied, 20.7% of the canals were found to have lateral canals and most ramification of them were located in the apical third of the root. 3. In the case of the curvature, the mesial curvature of the canals (40.3%) usually showed more than the distal curvature of them (13.4%) 4. 41.2% of the apical foramen were located directly on the root apex and 58.5% of them laterally.

Sixty six mandibular incisor were injected with China ink, decalcified, cleared and used to study the number of root canals, the frequency and location of lateral canals, the location of apical foramens, the frequency of apical deltas, and the curvature of root canals. The results were as follows: 1. Most of the teeth demonstrated single canal, but 19.7% of the teeth were found to have bifurcated canals. 2. 12% of the teeth were found to have lateral canals and these ramifications were located in the apical third of the root. 3. 25 apical foramens were located directly on the root apex and 41 foramens laterally. 4. 43 canals showed straight, 7 canals distal curvature, 7 labial curvature, 3 mesial curvature.

Thirty eight mandibular second premolars were injected with china ink, decalcified, cleared and used in an in vitro study to determine the number of root canals, the frequency and location of lateral canals, the location of apical foramens, the frequency of apical deltas, and the curvature of root canals. The results were as follows: 1. Most of the teeth demonstrated single canal, but 5.3% of the teeth were found to have bifurcated or trifurcated canals. 2. Of the 40 canals studied, 52.5% of the canals were found to have lateral canals and these ramifications were usually located in the apical third of the root. 3. 7 apical foramens were located directly on the root apex and 31 foramens laterally. 4. 4 canals showed mesial curvature, 20 canals distal curvature, 11 canals buccal curvature, and 8 canals lingual curvature.

Thirty seven human maxillary third mooars were injected with china ink, decalcified, cleared, and used in vitro study to determine the number of root canals the frequency and location of lateral canals, canals per root, and frequency of apical deltas. The results were as follows: 1. Less than half of the examined teeth showed 3 roots and 3 canals. 2. The mesiobuccal root was ound to contain a single primary canal in 65.4% of the teeth examined and two canals in 34.6% of the teeth studed. 3. In mesiobuccal roots with two canals, the separated apical foramen appeared 30.8% of the specimen concerned, but no common apical foramen appeared. 4. Of the 106 canals studied, 46.2% of the canals were found to contain lateral canals and these ramifications were mainly located in the apical third of the root.

Forty extracted human mandibular second molars with C-shaped canal were chosen to study the anatomy of the root canal. The experimental teeth were injected with china ink, decalcified and cleared with Winter green oil, in vitro, to study the number of root, root canal, canal per root, frequency and location of lateral canal and transverse anastomosis. 1. All teedth had one root. 2. Mesial roots with two canals were 25%, and mesial roots with one canal were 75%. All distal roots had one canal. 3. In the roots with two canals, the common apical foramen appeared in 20% and the separte apical foramen appeared in 80%. 4. The frequence of lateral canal was 33.3% and the most frequent region was middle 1/3. 5. All teeth had the transverse anastomosis in all region of the roots.
