Endodontic Management of Four Rooted Maxillary Second Molar Using CBCT as A Diagnostic Aid -A Case Report

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 6

Abstract

Successful Endodontic treatment depends upon Adequate knowledge about the morphology of root canal system and diagnosing the anatomic variants to avoid missed canals. Maxillary second molars usually present with two buccal and one palatal root. Occurrence of an extra palatal root is a rare scenario with prevalence of around 1.4%.. The following case report describes endodontic management of maxillary second molar with an unusual morphology of two independent palatal roots identified using CBCT. The access cavity design was modified and the chemo-mechanical preparation of root canals was done using rotary NiTi files and a separated instrument was bypassed and obturation was done using Endocem MTA sealer.
