Unusual location of second mesiobuccal orifice in maxillary second molar

The Location and Accessibility of the Second Mesiobuccal Canal in Maxillary First Molar

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to examine the location and accessibility of the second mesibuccal canal in maxillary first molar of a Turkish sub-population. METHODS Presence and accessibility of the MB2 canal in 110 extracted maxillary first molars was examined with unaided vision, dental loups and the DOM. To characterize the geometrical location of MB2 canals, photographs of pulp...

A case report: Unusual anatomy of maxillary second molar with 3 mesiobuccal canals.

Understanding root canal morphology is one of the most important steps in successful root canal treatment. Thus, during the diagnosis and treatment phases of the maxillary molars, a clinician must be aware that anatomical variations exist. A number of studies, especially in vitro, have investigated various root canal morphologies, including aberrations of maxillary molars. This clinical case re...
