The aim of this study was to evaluate the interradicular septum bone morphometric characteristics using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images, as well establish quantitative shortcuts allow clinicians make a faster and more reliable plan for immediate implant placement in maxillary molars area. This retrospective conducted on CBCT images obtained from 100 patients. analysis region based parameters sagittal axial slices. performed slices showed that first had wider when compared second molars, but height significantly below molars. both perimeter surface area were pronounced than furcation angle correlated with (positively) (negatively) results may recommend image useful tool predefining circumstances can substantially better planning procedures
