| Summary: | The dynamic concept of the root canal system, which describes
a variable morphology of the multiple root canals which are interconnected by anastomoses, has been established as the prevailing state in the mandibular molars. The aim of this case report was
to describe the unusual root canal anatomy that was detected in
the mandibular first molar during the routine endodontic treatment.
The clinical and the radiographic examinations allowed the detection of the middle mesial root canal between the mesiobuccal and
the mesiolingual root canals. This report highlights the importance
of such examinations and the need to find and treat the additional
canals, to achieve a successful endodontic treatment. |
