ABSTRACT

The aim of this article is to present endodontic management of mandibular first molar with a single root and single root canal with the aid of cone beam computed tomography. The accurate diagnosis of this unusual morphology was made with the aid of multiple angulated radiographs and cone beam computed tomography followed by a planned endodontic treatment of the tooth.
