The mandibular second molar exhibits a wide range of intricate root canal variations, which can present challenges and difficulties in achieving successful root canal treatment. This report focuses on two specific cases involving a root canal variation in a typical taurodontism of the mandibular second molar. To provide a comprehensive analysis and illustration of the anatomical structure of intraoral taurodontism and the important considerations for root canal treatment, we utilized advanced imaging techniques such as cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and a dental microscope. By combining these tools, we were able to gain a deeper understanding of the complex root canal system and make informed decisions during the treatment process.
下颌第二磨牙表现出广泛的复杂根管变异，这可能会在根管治疗中带来挑战和困难。本报告重点介绍了两个具体病例，涉及下颌第二磨牙典型的尖牙型牙本质变形的根管变异。为了提供口腔尖牙型牙本质变形的解剖结构的全面分析和说明，以及根管治疗的重要考虑因素，我们利用了先进的成像技术，如锥形束计算机断层扫描（CBCT）和牙科显微镜。通过结合这些工具，我们能够更深入地了解复杂的根管系统，并在治疗过程中做出明智的决策。
