Abstract: Micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) was employed to relate the root surface area (RSA) to the periodontal attachment levels (PALs) of extracted premolars to diagnose periodontitis. Single-rooted human maxillary and mandibular premolars 31 and 36, respectively, were surveyed by micro-CT and its associated software. RSA levels from the 1st to 10th mm, corono-apically, were analyzed using statistical t tests. The average root length (RL) and RSA of the maxillary and mandibular premolars were significantly different (p
