Endodontic Management of a Rare Anatomic variation Radix Entomolaris of Mandibular I Molar- Case Report
Journal Title: International Journal of Contemporary Medical Research - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Introduction: For successful endodontic treatment a comprehensive knowledge of the root canal anatomy is a basic prerequisite. Usually the permanent mandibular first molar has 2 roots mesial and distal. But they can show considerable anatomic variations which can affect the crown, number of roots and number of canals. Radix entomolaris (RE) is a form of additional root present disto lingually. Case Report: We present a case of radix entomolaris in a 12 year old child patient which was successfully treated endodontically and emphasised its early diagnosis radiographically and knowledge about its prevalence, diagnosis, morphology, canal configuration, and clinical approach. Conclusion: RE is an uncommon anatomical variation and can be easily detected on oral radiograph (IOPA-Intraoral Periapical) if evaluated properly. Misdiagnosis of such a morphological variation can leads to incomplete biomechanical preparation of the tooth leading to endodontic failure. Also if such a tooth is indicated for extraction it can lead to procedural difficulties.
