case_images: In addition, radiographic apical contour of the tooth suggested that there might be two distal and two mesial roots (Figure 1(a)). The conventional access was modified to improve access to the additional canals (Figure 1(b)). Working length was confirmed (Figure 1(c)) and the canals were instrumented. The patient was asymptomatic at the next appointment, a week later, which allowed for root canal obturation and a coronal composite restoration (Figure 1(d)).
