title: Radicular grooves in maxillary lateral incisor: case report.
abstract: The authors present a case report of a radicular groove in a maxillary lateral incisor in a 58-year old male patient. Endodontic and periodontal treatment was not carried out and therefore, avulsion of the tooth was indicated. The radicular grooves were very deep with pulp chamber communication.
