Abstract

The mandibular first premolar, which is the anteriormost tooth in the mandibular arch, differs from other teeth in that it typically has two roots and two to four canals. The current case involves treating a mandibular first premolar with two canals through endodontic therapy. The 42-year-old male patient's left mandibular first premolar was diagnosed with irreversible pulpitis. The lateral view X-ray depicted two canals. In the dental procedure, endodontic treatment involves working under an operating microscope and using magnification to treat the affected tooth. After canal shaping the tooth was treated with the crown after it had been cleaned and then adjusted for the bite. As aforementioned, no signs of periapical disease were observed when the tooth was rediscovered a year later. However, this case study indicates that any shift in the anatomy of the canal in premolars should be well monitored and controlled to improve endodontic treatment outcomes of such teeth as the mandibular first premolars.
