Abstract

A desirable result for an endodontic treatment is dictated by good understanding of root canal morphology. Missing out on complexities of the root canal system can hamper shaping and cleaning, hence facilitating such procedures with radiography is pivotal in achieving a hermetic seal of the canal system. This case report describes a unique situation of three separate buccal canals along with a palatal canal in the two roots of an upper premolar and its successful management.
