Case Report: Mandibular Second Premolar, A Morphological Ingruity

Abstract

The root canal is a complex system of finely tuned and synchronized small tributaries present along the body of tooth dentine. Therefore, knowledge of pulp anatomy is essential for endodontic treatment success, as lack of sound knowledge of the pulp anatomy can contribute to treatment failure. With the advancement of technological aids and numerous research have laid the foundation of multi rooted teeth or canals as the rule rather than exception. As such, bifurcating canals, multiple foramina, fins, deltas, loops, cul-de-sacs, C-shaped canals and accessory canals are commonly encountered in most teeth. So, accurate diagnosis followed by location, cleaning and shaping and finally obturation of such variations of canals is important as it determines the prospect of success of endodontic therapy.
