ABSTRACT

According to numerous studies, lower premolars may present great anatomical variability and their endodontic treatment may be challenging. Modern imagistic techniques and technology, along with magnifying devices, allow us to acquire a comprehensive understanding of the internal anatomy of the tooth. A careful assessment must be performed prior to any other step, as it affects the decision to treat a tooth, the treatment plan, and the final outcome. This article reports the endodontic management of a first lower premolar with three canals.
