title: [Mandibular permanent cuspids with two roots].
abstract: When one reviews the literature, it is quite apparent that there seems to be many assumptions relative to the number of roots found in mandibular permanent canines. After having examined 806 specimens, the author of this article found that 95 per cent of mandibular canines had one root and five per cent had two roots.
