What causes CEPs
Amelogenesis fails to halt before root development
3 grades and characteristics of CEPs
Grade 1 - distinct change in CEJ pointing to furcation
Grade 2 - CEP approaches but does not enter furcation
Grade 3 - CEP extends into furcation
Prevalence of CEPs (3 sources)
Hou and Tsai - 85% of molars w/ furcation involvement
Masters and Hoskins - MAN molars 28.6%, MAX molars 17%
Masters - 90% of isolated furcations
Most common tooth w/ CEP
2nd molars, buccal
CEP proximity to pulp (source)
Sterit - Up to 1.6mm

What % does root trunk and root make up of the attachment area?
30% root trunk
70% roots
% w/ root grooves on 1M and 2M (source)
Kerns
50-60% 1M
90% 2M
Significance of root grooves
Plaque accumulation
Attachment loss
Predispose to furcation involvement
