A comprehensive knowledge and understanding of root canal anatomical variations are essential for successful root canal treatment. Mandibular molar teeth show considerable variations in their external and internal radicular morphology that require special attention from dental practitioners to provide the best clinical outcomes to the patients. This report aims to present root canal treatment of a mandibular first molar that has six separate root canals (three root canals in the mesial roots and three in the distal roots [236 M3 D3]). This report points out the importance of proper exploration for identifying additional canals in mandibular molars.
全面了解和认识根管解剖变异对于成功进行根管治疗至关重要。下颌磨牙的牙根外部和内部形态存在相当大的变异,牙科医生需要特别关注,以便为患者提供最佳临床效果。本报告旨在介绍一例下颌第一磨牙的根管治疗,该牙有六条独立的根管(近中根三条根管,远中根三条根管[236 M3 D3])。本报告指出了在下颌磨牙中正确探查以识别额外根管的重要性。
