Abstract

A detailed knowledge of the pulp canal anatomy and variations in individual tooth is important to effectively
clean and shape the root canal system. Identification of such variations and their instrumentation together
with adequate disinfection can avoid need for future retreatment and surgical intervention. Several case
reports reported variations in tooth morphology and root canal systems related to the mandibular first
premolars. The occurrence of three roots in the mandibular first premolar is unusual. This article reports
the identification and management of mandibular first premolar with aberrant root and root canal system.

Keywords: Anatomical variations, Mandibular first premolar, Three root canals.
