Anatomic variations can occur in any tooth, therefore careful clinical and radiographic examination is compulsory for successful outcome. An awareness and thorough knowledge of internal and external root canal morphology contribute to the successful root canal treatment. In mandibular first molar Radix Entomolaris (Additional lingual root) and Radix Paramolaris (Additional Buccal root) with two distal roots is an interesting example of anatomic variation. Radix entomolaris (RE) is considered to be an Asiatic trait. However, its prevalence in Indian population is found to be lower than in other Asian races. Nevertheless, its awareness and identification is vital to achieve endodontic success. This case report discusses endodontic treatment of three mandibular molars with a radix entomolaris or paramolaris. The prevalence, the external morphological variations and internal anatomy of the radix entomolaris and paramolaris are described. Avoiding procedural errors during endodontic therapy demands an adapted clinical approach to diagnosis and root canal treatment
Key words: Endodontic treatment, mandibular molar, anatomical variations, radix entomolaris, radix paramolaris.
