Mandibular second molar exhibiting a unique “Y-” and “J-” “shaped” root canal anatomy diagnosed using cone-beam computed tomographic scanning: A case report
Abstract:This article aims to report a unique case with aberrant root canal anatomy exhibiting “Y-” and “J”-shaped canal pattern in a mandibular second molar. Anatomic complexities may pose challenges for endodontic treatment. Before performing endodontic treatment, the clinician should be aware of the internal anatomy of the tooth being treated and should recognize anatomic aberrations if present. Presence of unusual anatomy may call for modifications in treatment planning. This report describes in detail about a mand… Show more
