Abstract
|
|
|
|
Knowledge of basic root canal morphology and possible variations in anatomy are important for achieving successful root canal treatment. The Maxillary second premolar can include all four types of Weine’s configuration in root canal morphology. Among them, an unusual anatomic variation is Weine’s Type IV, a single, broad root canal that bifurcates into two separate root canals. For the successful root canal treatment of maxillary second premolar with a Weine’s Type IV configuration, clinician should be aware of canal variations and types. Radiographic examination with shifted horizontal angles, adequate access cavity formation, tactile examination of canals with a precurved K-file, and the use of different filling techniques are needed.
