Number of orifices and main apical foramina, main canal counts at coronal\/middle\/apical thirds, middle mesial canal (MMC) presence, and MB\u2013ML inter\u2010orifice distance in two\u2010orifice roots were measured. The prevalence of MMCs was significantly higher in bifid roots (35.5%) compared to non\u2010bifid roots (11.4%) (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&lt;\u20090.05). Bifid roots exhibited a significantly higher mean number of apical foramina (2.24\u2009\u00b1\u20090.43) than non\u2010bifid roots (1.33\u2009\u00b1\u20090.52) (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&lt;\u20090.05). In roots with two orifices, the MB\u2013ML inter\u2010orifice distance was significantly wider in the bifid group (2.57\u2009\u00b1\u20090.56\u2009mm) compared to the non\u2010bifid group (2.28\u2009\u00b1\u20090.50\u2009mm) (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&lt;\u20090.05). Canal configurations also differed significantly; bifid roots were predominantly Vertucci Type V (31.1%) and Type IV (26.7%), while non\u2010bifid roots frequently presented with Type I (33.3%) and Type III (26.7%).\n
