Abstract

Failure to locate and disinfect all the root canals maybe a major reason for endodontic failure. A rare variant morphology of maxillary premolar has three separate roots with three root canals. The aim of this article is to report diagnosis and endodontic treatment of a maxillary first premolar with three roots and canals using reciprocating rotary instrumentation technique completed in single sitting. This paper also reports the presence of an associated three rooted second premolar in the same patient.
