“…12 For dental treatment, CBCT is an important method of diagnosis. 8 This aided us in distinguishing two distinct palatal canals. According to the information available, maxillary second molar exhibits a greater frequency of anatomical changes than the maxillary first molar, suggesting that its anatomy is considerably more complicated than maxillary first molar.…”

Key Clinical MessageMain objective of root canal therapy is to locate all the canals, cleaning and shaping, and obturation to obtain fluid tight seal. Failure to locate all canals can lead to the failure of root canal therapy.AbstractVariation of pulp aperture, among teeth with multiple roots, constitutes recurring issue during diagnosing and completing efficient endodontic procedures. Understanding normal anatomy features and associated likely modifications is critical in the effective execution of the dental procedure, since the inability to effectively treat simply one canal may end up into endodontic unsuccessful therapy. The paper covers a procedure whereby the root pattern and canals of the maxillary second molar were modified employing an operative microscope and verified with cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT). Cone‐beam computed tomography revealed that the maxillary second molar containing two different palatal roots and canals and two distinct buccal roots and canals. This Research paper presents and investigates the morphological difference observed on the maxillary second molar in order to guarantee the effectiveness of root canal treatment examined utilizing imaging techniques like CBCT.

The aim: To characterize the variations in the anatomical structure of the second lower molar. Materials and methods: In order to determine the topography of the roots and root canals of the mandibular second molar, modern imaging methods were used: orthopan¬tomography and cone-beam computed tomography. Case report: During the analysis of the orthopantomogram of the patient, the three-root morphology of the root system of 37 teeth was revealed. That is, three roots were clearly visualized. After detecting an atypical shape of the root system of the mandibular second molar in the panoramic image, the patient was offered to perform cone-beam computed tomography (CPCT) for diagnostic purposes. Analysis by cone-beam computed tomography showed the presence of four mature roots of normal length, which were arranged in the shape of a diamond. Conclusions: The four-root configuration is considered a rare form for mandibular molars, but it should be considered in endodontic interventions and, if possible, in the planning of such interventions, use cone-beam computed tomography.
