Description
The anatomical characteristics of permanent maxillary molars generally include three roots—one palatal and two buccal, each root with one root canal. The present case report aims at discussing a rare anatomy of the maxillary second molar with five roots.
The complexities and variations of the roots and their canal system present a constant challenge for diagnosis and successful endodontic treatment.1 Newer technologies like spiral CT can also be used to study root canal morphology in complicated cases. Since the subject of study was an extracted tooth, the concern regarding radiation was not there. The use of multislice CT and 3D reconstruction techniques help in understanding the possible anatomical aberrations of maxillary molars and emphasise their role in the confirmatory diagnosis.
