Endodontic Management Of Radix Entomolaris - Two Case Reports.

A mandibular first molar with two distal roots is an interesting example of anatomic variation. This paper describes 2 case reports of mandibular first molar with three roots (one mesial and two distal) and four canals (two in mesial and one in each distobuccal and distolingual root). The canals were shaped with protaper rotary files and irrigated with 2.5% sodium hyochlorite and 0.2 %w/v of chlorhexidine gluconate and normal saline as the final irrigant. The prevalence, the external morphological variations and internal anatomy of the radix entomolaris and paramolaris are described.
