Abstract

Maxillary lateral incisors are generally considered as a tooth with a single root and single canal. This is not true in all cases as case reports have advocated maxillary lateral incisors showing two roots with two or three root canals, Thorough knowledge of the internal and external dental anatomy and its variations is essential for a successful endodontic treatment. This case report deals with the periapical surgery in a two rooted maxillary lateral incisor along with the central incisor.
