Abstract

Correct diagnosis of root canal anatomy is very important to ensure successful root canal treatment. Man­dibular first premolars with three separate root ca­nals are very rare. Consequently, they often require specific shaping and obturating techniques. This report describes the diagnosis and non-surgical treatment(s) of bilateral mandibular first premolars with three separate root canals.
