title: Radiographic appearance of nutrient canals in the region of the erupting permanent maxillary cuspid.
abstract: A retrospective radiographic search was made for nutrient canals situated immediately inferior to the incisal tip of the unerupted permanent maxillary cuspid. In this study, the structure was observed radiographically in 35.4% of the children between the ages of 6 and 10 years, with an apparently greater incidence among girls.
