Abstract :

Adequate knowledge of the root canal anatomy is required for success of endodontic therapy. Variations in the root canal system pose a diagnostic and treatment challenge. One of the most important variations is the C–shaped canal configuration. Proper diagnosis and modification of instrumentation and obturation techniques is essential for management of such cases. This paper reports the successful endodontic management of a mandibular second molar with C–shaped canal.
