MORPHOLOGICAL FEATURES AND ENDODONTIC TREATMENT IN TAURODONTISM

Abstract

The goal of endodontic treatment is the removing of pathological tissues and bacterias from the root canal system. The major obstacle is achieving this goal is represented by branched root canal systems, sometimes this is more difficult due to atypical tooth anatomy or tooth anomaly. This article presents a complex case of a lower premolar with multiple root canals and a dental anomaly.
