Mandibular first premolar with three root canals.
This report presents a case of endodontic treatment of a mandibular first premolar with 3 root canals and a review of the literature concerning root canal anatomy of lower premolars. It is stressed that, even in teeth with a low frequency of abnormal root canal anatomy, the possibility of additional root canals has to be considered in the clinical and radiographic examination of the patient.
