Abstract

Background:  Mandibular canine usually contains one root with a single root canal. The occurrence of two roots and two canals is a rare entity ranging from 1 to 5%. The anatomy of root canal morphology plays a decisive role in determining the conditions under which endodontic treatment can be performed effectively. Successful endodontic treatment comprises proper diagnosis, meticulous cleaning and shaping, followed by three dimensional obturation. Failure to do so may lead to postoperative diseases, pain and further complications. This article reports successful management of a mandibular canine with two roots and two canals.

Keywords: Bilateral Mandibular Canine, two canals, dentistry.
