Abstract :
Developmental disturbances such as change in tooth shape, size and number are recognized conditions. One such anomaly is supernumerary root. The condition is more common in molars than in anterior teeth. The studies have however shown the variation in the morphology of single rooted mandibular canine. Adding to the literature is this case report which presents impacted mandibular canine with two roots and root canals using CBCT. The awareness of these variations through varying research materials is a must. The success of treatment depends on internal and external anatomy of tooth as well. Thereby, lack of knowledge of these anatomical aberrations could lead to failure of treatment, especially endodontic treatment. Proper pre operative imaging and interpretation is a key to hike success rates with anatomical complexities and variabilities.
