The morphology of the root of the inferior incisors have a longitudinal, meslal and distal furrow that can condition the bifurcation of its root canal. The objetive of this work is to study in vivo and in vitro the incidence of the bifurcation of the root canal of the inferior incisors using radiovisiography. On the in vivo study, four hundred teeth were analyzed and orthoradial radiovisiographles of the incisors region and canines region were done where incisors with a 20º distal deviation could be seen. On the in vitro study, two hundred inferior incisors were used positioned in a mould, simulating the inferior dental arch and were radiovisiographed on the bucco-lingual direction and later, on the mesio-distal direction. The raradiovisiographies were visualized on the device monitor where the presence of an only canal, a bifurcated canal and a canal with bifurcation characteristics were analyzed. They correspond to the decrease in radiolucity and to the presence of radiolucidity lines disposed longitudinally to the root. The results show that 17,5% of the teeth on the in vivo study and 15% of the teeth on the in vitro study that were radiovisiographed on the bucco-lingual direction presented bifurcation or signs of bifurcation. On the in vitro study, on the mesiodistal direction, we found 20% of bifurcation. We can conclude that the use of the dislalization of the X-rays shaft technique allows us to delect a great percentage of cases of bifurcated root canals or cases with signs of bifurcation of the inferior incisors with the use of radiovisiography
