An upper left lateral incisor with double roots and double root canals: A case report
Dental practitioners should possess a comprehensive understanding of the typical anatomy of the dental root canal system and remain cognizant of the potential variations in root canal configurations. When root canal variation is suspected, meticulous examination of the pulp chamber floor, altering the X-ray projection angle, or conducting a high-resolution cone beam computed tomography scan is essential to ensure accurate diagnosis and prevent missed canals, ultimately improving treatment success.
