人類的下顎第一大恆臼齒通常只有兩個牙根，臨床上卻也發現在台灣有為數不少的病患，其下顎第一大恆臼齒具有三個牙根，亦即出現了遠心舌側牙根。此第三牙根的出現，可能增加牙髓病治療、拔牙或矯正治療的困難度，提高牙根分叉侵犯的機會，降低牙周治療的預後。有鑑於先前之文獻報告，多認為蒙古人下顎第一大恆臼齒出現第三牙根的盛行率較高。因此本篇研究藉由比較同一下顎第一大恆臼齒拍攝的放射線咬翼片及根尖片，得知根尖片在判讀第三牙根是否存在的可信度與咬翼片無異，並進一步以放射線根尖片，研究台灣人下顎第一大恆臼齒具第三牙根的盛行率。結果顯示在台灣人下顎第一大恆臼齒具第三牙根的盛行率為11.95%，約落在多數學者所研究亞洲人的盛行率範圍中；其中，男性的盛行率（12.56%）略高於女性（11.30%），但並無統計學上的差異；出現在雙側的盛行率（7.41%）較出現在單側的盛行率（4.54%）高；又單獨出現在右側者的盛行率約為單獨出現在左側者的3.1倍。本篇報告並提供給臨床牙醫師一個簡易的判讀方法，藉由放射線根尖片及早診斷下顎第一大恆臼齒是否具第三牙根，以期達到預防疾病的目的。

Background: Permanent mandibular first molar usually has two roots and two furcations. Existence of a third root, the distolingual (DL) root, may increase the difficulties of endodontic treatment, extraction procedure, orthodontic movement, as well as the likelihood of periodontal breakdown which hampers the periodontal prognosis.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of three-rooted permanent mandibular first molars in Taiwanese by conventional dental radiography, and to find out whether single periapical or bitewing radiograph is sufficient to serve as a diagnostic tool in detecting the presence of this extra DL root on the permanent mandibular first molar.
Methods: Six hundred thirty four permanent mandibular first molars were randomly selected for observing the difference of diagnostic accuracy between periapical and bitewing radiographic techniques. Statistical analysis was performed with McNemar’s Chi-square test (P<0.05). Paired periapical radiographs of bilateral permanent mandibular first molars from 1255 subjects were used to investigate the overall prevalence of 3-rooted occurrence as well as to compare the prevalence between female and male, bilateral and unilateral, left- and right-side occurrences. The data were analyzed by Pearson Chi-square test (p<0.05). All radiographs were examined by two periodontists. Intra- and inter-examiner reproducibility was evaluated by Kappa statistics.
Result: There was no statistically significant difference between using periapical radiography and bite-wing radiography in diagnosing the occurrence of a third root on the mandibular first molar (p>0.05). Overall prevalence of the 3-rooted permanent mandibular first molar was 11.95%; there was no statistically significant difference between males and females (12.56% v.s 11.30%)(p>0.05). Bilateral occurrence (7.41%) was higher than unilateral one (4.54%)(p<0.001) in which right-side occurrence was 3.1 fold higher than that on the left side (p<0.01).
Conclusion: This study concludes that the prevalence of 3-rooted permanent mandibular first molars is 11.95% in Taiwanese. Single periapical radiography is an efficient tool to diagnose the occurrence of a third root on a permanent mandibular first molar. Clinicians should be aware of this anatomic variation. Further investigations need to be conducted to verify the influence of this DL root on its periodontal health.
