description | A wide array of anatomical variations present to dentists from time to time. The mandibular third molars are not far away in this context. Many a time, extraction remains the choice of treatment because of their most posterior location and unpredictable anatomy. In terms of anatomy, an extra distolingual root (radix entomolaris) poses a serious challenge, and it is very rare as well. Hence, the identification and management of radix entomolaris is an essential goal for the successful root canal treatment. The aim of this article is to present article the successful endodontic management of a mandibular third molar with three roots and four root canals. |
