Endodontic Management of Mandibular Premolars with Three Roots and Three Canals

Abstract

Proper knowledge of the internal anatomy of tooth is essential for the long-term success of endodontic treatment. Mandibular premolars exhibit a greater variation in their internal morphology due to the occurrence of additional roots and root canals. This article showcases two case reports of successful endodontic management of mandibular premolars with three roots and three canals. A detailed diagnosis of symptomatic irreversible pulpitis with apical periodontitis was made through clinical and radiographic examinations. Endodontic management was carried out successfully and the patient was evaluated.
