mandibular premolars have earned a reputation for having aberrant anatomy. the occurrence of three canals with three separate foramina in mandibular premolars is very rare. if predictable treatment of a three rooted mandibular premolar is planned, precise knowledge of clinical and radiographic anatomy is absolutely necessary. these teeth may also require special shaping and obturating technique...

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.

presence of extra roots and canals should be considered before initiation of root canal treatment for the success of endodontic treatment. a mandibular second premolar with three separate roots is very rare and its prevalence has been reported to be around 0.1%. this case report explains non-surgical endodontic treatment of a mandibular second premolar with three separate roots and three separa...

dental anatomical variations play a significant role in the diagnosis and a successful treatment outcome in endodontics. it is essential for the clinician to have a clear picture and understanding of the pulpal anatomy and its variations. in a mandibular second premolar, it is rare to find extra roots and canals. the aim of the present article is to report a case about the successful diagnosis,...

Running title: Root and canal morphology of maxillary first premolar teeth Abstract Aim : To determine the variations in the root and canal morphology of the maxillary first premolar teeth in a Ugandan population. Methodology : Extracted maxillary first premolar teeth (n = 202) were evaluated in this study. The specimens had their pulp chambers de-roofed. They were decalcified in nitric acid an...
