Accurate diagnosis of root canal morphology and anatomy is essential for thorough shaping and cleaning of the entire root canal system and consequent successful root canal treatment. Mandibular premolars show a wide variety of root canal anatomy. This paper describes a case of mandibular second premolar with three root canals that has previously received an incomplete root canal treatment.
