Endodontic Diagnosis

During endodontic diagnosis multirooted teeth morphologically, shows variable root canal system . This case report explains the anatomical variations of root and root canals. Here it is shown that a single canal is present in mandibular second molar. Therefore we should be aware that a single canal can also be present in mandibular molar.

C-shaped canal variation is commonly seen in mandibular second molars. Extra canals is not always a variation in root canals. Radiograph is a must for the identification of single canal. Thorough idea of the proper anatomy of root canals is utmost important to diagnose the variations.

Variations of root canal systems need not always be in the form of extra canals. Clinicians should be aware that there is a possibility of existence of fewer numbers of roots and root canals than normal, which presents varied canal anatomy and poses a challenge to the clinician's expertise. This case report deals with the management of an unusual case of C-shaped canal in mandibular second molar. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was employed to conrm the extension of the unusual anatomy. 3-D Obturation done with the help of thermoplastic obturation unit.

Finding the incidence of anatomical variation in root canals is commonly found as a result of more sophisticated diagnostic tools. Therefore, a thorough understanding of the normal anatomy of canals and its variations in root canal treatments would be helpful in achieving the desired result. Usual root configuration of a mandibular second molar is two separate roots, distal and mesial, with one canal each. The incidence of a distinct 4 root canal in the distal root of C- shaped orifices is a rare phenomenon that is reported in the literature. This case study shows how to locate and manage a rare anatomical variation of a mandibular second molar with a distinct 4 canal in the distal aspect in a C-shaped orifice successfully, the successful treatment of this case explains that we should have an awareness and understanding of the presence of additional canals and abnormal morphology of the canals. Beside that the operator’s perseverance and patience as well as sophisticated diagnostic tools such as the dental operating microscope, ultrasonic tips have an important role in treating unusual configurations of canals.

Preoperative Radiograph

Root canal morphology is not uniform, variations of root canals are routinely encountered by endodontists making the root canal treatment more challenging. C shaped canal is a variation commonly encountered in mandibular second molars. The main identifying feature of such canals is presence of fins or webs interconnecting with the main canals. Such canal systems require meticulous mechanical and rigorous chemical preparation to ensure desired outcome of the treatment. Proper assessment of tooth morphology, preoperative radiograph along with consideration towards racial predilection will greatly help in accurate identification of such canals pre-operatively. This paper reports a case of C shaped canal in mandibular second molar diagnosed and treated taking all the precautions and adapting necessary modifications in the steps of conventional root canal treatment steps where required thus increasing the likelihood of success.

Canal Morphology

Permanent mandibular second molars usually show two roots, one mesial and the other distal root with four root canals (two mesial and two distal canals). Variation in root number and canal morphology rarely occur in these teeth. Cone Beam Computed Tomography is a new advent in the diagnostic field which provides three dimensional clear picture of the root/canal. The present article describes the endodontic management of permanent mandibular left second molar with Vertucci II canal configuration using cone beam computed tomography.

ABSTRACTSuccess in root canal treatment is achieved after thought cleaning and shaping followed by the complete obturation of root canal system. Such treatment may be performed in root canal systems that do not comply with the normal anatomical features described in standard textbooks. This article describes the conventional root canal treatment on an unusual mandibular second molar with four root-canals. (Eur J Dent 2008;2:217-219)

ABSTRACT Introduction The objective of this article is to highlight the importance of having a thorough knowledge about the root canal anatomy and the possibility of extra root/root canal. Materials and methods This case report presents the endodontic management of a left mandibular second molar with four roots and five canals. Results The clinical and radiographic diagnosis shows the existence of four roots and five canals (two in distobuccal root, one in distolingual root, one in mesiobuccal root, and one in mesiolingual root) in mandibular second molar. Conclusion Anatomic variation in the number of roots and root canals can occur in any tooth. Close examination of radiographs taken from different angles and careful evaluation of the internal anatomy of teeth is essential or else root canal treatment is likely to fail if extra roots or root canals are not detected.
