Bilateral Two Rooted Mandibular Second Premolars: Report of an unusual Case
نویسندگان
چکیده
The mandibular second premolar is usually described as a single rooted tooth with a single root canal. However, two root canals may be found but the occurrence of two roots is extremely rare. The reported studies have shown 0.3% prevalence of two roots in mandibular second premolars. This report describes an unusual case of a thirteen year old female patient with bilateral two rooted mandibular second premolars. The patient reported for root canal therapy of decayed mandibular first permanent molar and the presence of bilateral two rooted mandibular second premolars was detected coincidently. The clinicians should be aware of the presence of anatomical variations in the teeth during endodontic treatment.

Human mandibular premolars have earned the reputation for having an extremely complex root and root canal morphology. The incidence of multiple roots and canals in mandibular second premolars is lower than those in mandibular first premolars. Mandibular second premolars with three root canals and separate foramina are very rare. In this case report, endodontic management of a three-rooted mandi...

متن کاملRoot Canal Treatment of Maxillary and Mandibular Three-Rooted Premolars: Case Reports
Familiarity with the normal and abnormal anatomy of the root canal system is essential for successful root canal treatment. The possibility of concomitant three-rooted and three- canalled maxillary and mandibular premolars are extremely rare. The purpose of this paper was to report a case with a three-rooted maxillary first premolar and two three-rooted mandibular premolars.
