Popis: Success of endodontic treatment depends on the proper identification of all the canals, thorough chemomechanical preparation followed by three-dimensional obturation with hermetic seal. Failure of any of these steps may occur due to unusual tooth morphology. Usually mandibular molars have two roots with three canals but in few teeth, the number of roots and canals vary. The variation in the number of roots, if extra root located lingually called radix entomolaris (RE) or located bucally called radix paramolaris (RP). This article presents successful endodontic treatment of two mandibular first molars with extra roots one is with radix entomolaris and other is with radix paramolaris, both of which are rare microstructures.
