Abstract :

The endodontic treatment of a mandibular molar with aberrant canal configuration can be diagnostically and clinically challenging. With the increasing number of reports of aberrant root canal morphology, the clinician needs to be aware of the variable anatomy. This case report presents the treatment of a mandibular first molar with five root canals, of which two canals were located in the mesial root and three in distal root. This case presents a rare anatomic configuration and points to the importance of expecting and searching for additional canals.
