The working length radiograph revealed the presence of an extra buccal half of the access opening was slightly enlarged in a mesio-
root, which was not apparent in the initial radiograph distal direction and this uncovered a second mesio-buccal canal.
The access opening was widened mesio-distally and exploration The mesio-buccal and disto-buccalcanals were enlarged up to size

A male patient aged 27 years came with a complaint of severe diagnosed as having an irreversible pulpitis and an intraoral
pain in left maxillary second premolar tooth. The tooth required radiograph revealed three roots and three canals
endodontic treatment and its radiograph revealed three roots and
hence the possibility of three canals.
