From the past several years, there have been numerous studies that describe the morphology of teeth, including mandibular first molars. This tooth presents a high rate of intercanals and anastomosis, mainly in the apical 5 mm, which presents a clinical challenge in terms of cleaning and disinfection. A missed canal can lead to failure of endodontic therapy. Therefore every effort must be made to locate additional canals if any. This case report shows a variation in conventional anatomy in mandibular first molars.

Abstract


From the past several years, there have been numerous studies that describe the morphology of teeth, including mandibular first molars. This tooth presents a high rate of intercanals and anastomosis, mainly in the apical 5 mm, which presents a clinical challenge in terms of cleaning and disinfection. A missed canal can lead to failure of endodontic therapy. Therefore every effort must be made to locate additional canals if any. This case report shows a variation in conventional anatomy in mandibular first molars.
