Abstract
Knowledge about the possible existence and the racial prevalence is mandatory for successful endodontic treatment of cases ofRadix Entomolaris (RE). Factors such as an extra cusp usually buccal (protostylid), prominent distolingual lobe, complexity of the external contour of the furcation and convexity in the cervical region help to diagnose the presence of an RE. Radiographically, double periodontal ligament images or outline of the distal root contour can hint the presence of an RE. An angled radiograph (25-30°) can be more useful in this regard. Three-dimensional imaging techniques based on computed tomography (CT) and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) have been able to predict the exact morphology of an RE non- invasively. This is a case report of a successful endodontic treatment of an 11 years old female patient with
