Abstract

|
A comprehensive understanding of the root and the root canal morphology is imperative to reduce endodontic failure caused by incomplete root canal preparation and obturation. Despite a wide range of anatomical variations associated with maxillary molars that have been reported, the presence of four roots has been considered as a rare phenomenon. The following case report describes successful non-surgical management of maxillary second molar with unusual morphology of two independent palatal roots. The access cavity design was modified as dictated by the internal anatomy of the tooth and the chemo-mechanical preparation of root canals was done using rotary NiTi files and obturated using resin sealer.
