Abstract

One of the teeth with most complex root system and root canal anatomy are maxillary first molars. Maxillary molars having three separate mesiobuccal canals ending with three separate foramen are extremely rare. When planning endodontic treatment in these teeth, the clinical and radiographical anatomy should be considered. In clinical practice, cone-beam computed tomography is one of the most important diagnostic tools for fully assessing this rarely encountered morphology. The aim of this report is to present a case of a left maxillary first molar with three separate mesiobuccal canals ending with three separate foramen and to emphasise the importance of thorough assessment of the anatomy of the root canal before treatment.

Meziyobukkal kökünde üç kanal bulunan üst birinci büyük azı dişinin endodontik tedavisi: Bir olgu sunumu

Abstract

Üst birinci büyük azı dişi, en karmaşık kök ve
kanal anatomisine sahip dişlerden birisidir.
Bu dişin meziyobukkal kökünde üç ayrı
foramen ile sonlanan üç kanal bulunması ise
oldukça nadir görülen bir olgudur. Böyle bir
dişe endodontik tedavi uygulanacağı zaman,
klinik ve radyografik anatomisinin farkında
olunmalıdır. Klinikte nadir olarak karşılaşılan
morfolojilerin, tam bir değerlendirilmesinin
yapılabileceği en önemli tanı araçlarından biri
konik ışınlı bilgisayarlı tomografidir. Bu
makalenin amacı meziyobukkal kökünde ayrı
foramenler ile sonlanan, üç kanal bulunan
üst sol birinci büyük azı dişine ait bir olguyu
sunmak ve kök kanal anatomisi hakkında
tam bir bilgiye sahip olmanın önemini
vurgulamaktır.
