ENDODONTIC TREATMENT OF UPPER SECOND PREMOLAR WITH 3 ROOTS AND 3 RADICULARS – CLINICAL CASE REPORT

Abstract

Variations in the root canal anatomy of a maxillary first molar are often challenging to diagnose and treat; thus, clinicians must have a thorough knowledge of the same. This case report highlights the successful nonsurgical endodontic management of a maxillary first molar with an unusual morphology. Three canals were prepared using Sequence Niti rotary instruments (MK Life) to #25.06, and the root canals were irrigated with  2,5% sodium hypochlorite solution. Root canal filling was performed using the single cone technique associated with Bio-C Sealer cement and 25.06 taper gutta-percha tip were used. It is concluded that thorough knowledge of the variations in root canal anatomy is necessary for    the successful outcome of the endodontic procedure.
