ABSTRACT The endodontic treatment of maxillary molar with an aberrant root canal morphology can be diagnostically and technically challenging.1 Unusual root canal morphology in multirooted teeth is a constant challenge for diagnosis and successful endodontic treatment. Presence of extra canals, lateral canals, deltas is commonly encountered.2 This case report is presented to illustrate and describe the endodontic treatment of maxillary first molar with an unusual morphological variation of palatal root. The palatal root had two canals that appeared to unite in the apical third of the canal. How to cite this article Prabha MV, Sinha S, Kumar SVK, Haragopal S. Maxillary Molar with Two Palatal Canals.

Comprehensive understanding of variations in the root canal morphology of a maxillary molar is useful for performing successful endodontic treatment in such cases. This case report describes endodontic management of a case with such aberrant root canal morphology of a maxillary second molar having a single root and single canal.

It is imperative that the clinician should have comprehensive knowledge about the normal anatomy and its variations of the teeth as the deviations from the usual are very common. An increased awareness of unusual anatomy and a better understanding of the root canal system guide the clinician in accurate diagnosis and treatment of such variations in order to achieve a successful endodontic outcome. The maxillary first molar has been shown to have a wide variation in respect to the number of canals specifically noted in the mesiobuccal root. The current case report shows the successful management of a maxillary molar in which the mesiobuccal root had three canals.

The root canal system presents a complex anatomy. It is a myriad complex of canals and their various portals of exits. The maxillary first molar is an important tooth in the arch and is of prime functional importance. In maximum cases, the maxillary first molar shows presence of three canals viz. mesiobuccal, distobuccal and palatal canal. At times, there may be presence of four or five canals. These extra canals may be present as a second mesiobuccal canal, a second distobuccal canal or an extra canal in the palatal root. These canals are often missed by the clinician. Their identification has benefitted from technological innovations like microscopes and ultrasonics that have enabled easy identification of the orifices of these canals. This case report presents a case of root canal treatment of maxillary first molar with four canals.

Introduction. The success of endodontic treatment depends on the adequate biomechanical preparation and obturation of the entire root canal system. The untreated or poorly debrided/obturated root canals are among the most frequent causes of endodontic treatment failure. The endodontic treatment of maxillary molar has the highest failure rates due to the complexity of their root canal anatomy. The aim of the study is to present the endodontic treatment of maxillary second molar with two roots and two canals. Case report. The clinical case report presents the endodontic treatment of maxillary second molar with two roots and two canals in a patient, aged 32 years. After the analysis of preoperative diagnostic radiograph, opening the pulp chamber and access cavity preparation, two canal orifices were localized. After the biomechanical preparation, root canals were obturated with the Gutta-percha points and sealer during the same visit. Conclusion. Although maxillary second molar most commonly varies in terms of the number of root canals in the buccal roots, less common variations in anatomical and morphological traits, such as the presence of two roots and two canals, should be considered during endodontic treatment.

ABSTRACT Aim and background Debriding and disinfecting complex anatomies within the root canal system pose a major challenge during root canal therapy. Even with current chemomechanical techniques, debris and bacterial remnants are commonly left behind, which are generally believed to increase the risk of endodontic failure. This case details the use of a new technique to debride complex apical anatomy in a maxillary molar. Case report A 48-year-old female presented to the clinic with a chief complaint of increasing pain in her tooth. Clinical examination of the right first maxillary molar (#3) revealed moderate sensitivity to percussion and mild sensitivity to palpation. A pulpal diagnosis of symptomatic irreversible pulpitis and a periapical diagnosis of symptomatic apical periodontitis were made. Mechanical instrumentation was performed using rotary file size #25/.04 for the mesiobuccal and distobuccal canals and size #25/.06 for the palatal canal to create a fluid path and enable obturation of the root canal system following the GentleWave® Procedure. The GentleWave Procedure was completed using Multisonic Ultracleaning™ for complete debridement and disinfection of the root canal system. The tooth was obturated using a warm vertical continuous wave obturation technique. Postoperative radiographs revealed complex anatomy within the apical third that was undetected both during pre-operative radiography and mechanical instrumentation. The palatal canal exhibited a complex apical delta with multiple points of exit, and the mesiobuccal canal revealed an undetected lateral canal within the apical third that had a separate and distinct egress. Conclusion and clinical significance It is important for the clinician to debride and disinfect complex anatomy within the root canal system to reduce the risk of endodontic failure. This case report highlights the clinical significance of utilizing the GentleWave Procedure for detecting complex apical anatomy during endodontic therapy. How to cite this article Ford MW.

Evaluating morphology of a root canal is important in determination of a successful endodontic therapy. This article highlights the need to be aware of different morphologies, which can exist in the root canal system of upper molars. This is usually associated with buccal root and has been documented in several studies in literature. On the other hand, it is not often that we come across variations in the palatal roots. These cases discuss such a case where two canals were discovered in palatal root during root canal treatment of maxillary first molar. It is essential to evaluate pre-operative radiographs and have proper knowledge of anatomy of the root canal system before initiating the treatment. All roots must be explored carefully to ensure that all canals are negotiated, debrided and obturated to ensure successful endodontic outcome. This case report shows a case series in endodontic management of a maxillary first molar with two palatal canals.

An appreciation of the anatomic complexity of the root canal system is essential at every step of endodontic treatment. Endodontic treatment of teeth with unusual root canal anatomy presents a unique challenge. This clinical case report presents the application of cone beam computed tomography as a useful imaging technique in endodontics for the management of teeth with aberrant anatomy. Failure to detect an extra canal may lead to treatment failure. The current report presents the management of a previously endodontically treated maxillary first molar with missed additional mesiobuccal and distobuccal canals. Keywords: CBCT, Canal Morphology, Maxillary molar, Missed canal, Retreatment.

The high success of endodontic therapy for apical periodontitis treatment is well known. However, studies showed that between 20% to 60% of treated teeth in the population present with apical periodontitis after root canal therapy. When viable, non-surgical retreatment is the rst option while endodontic surgery should be the last resource for elimination of the disease. The aim of this case report is emphasize the potentiality of the successful outcome of surgical endodontic treatment following failed non-surgical treatment of a second maxillary premolar and rst maxillary molar
