ROOT CANAL TREATMENT USING DIFFERENT FILLING TECHNIQUES ON PREMOLAR TEETH WITH ADDITIONAL CANAL

Abstract

Successful root canal treatment: It relies on proper access cavity preparation, adequate cleaning, adequate shaping, and complete occlusion. Before these, the location of all canals in the tooth plays a key role in the initial treatment procedures. Among permanent teeth, maxillary and mandibular premolar teeth are reported to be the most diverse teeth in terms of root canal morphology. Maxillary first premolars are the teeth that show the most changes in root anatomy and root canal morphology. Mandibular premolars, which vary widely in terms of root canal morphology, are mostly single canals, but may also have more than one canal. The most common reasons why root canal treatment fails are incomplete canal filling and the presence of an untreated canal. It is especially important to know the root canal anatomy and possible variations for a successful endodontic treatment. The aim of this article is to study four patients; It presents the diagnosis process of a three-canal upper premolar tooth, two two-canal lower premolar teeth and a three-canal lower premolar tooth and the approach followed in root canal treatments.
