| Abstract | Introduction: Endodontic treatment is done to eliminate the potential sources of infection from the root canal space. Having extensive knowledge of the exact of internal anatomy of root canals is a prerequisite for a successful endodontic treatment. It is abnormal to have a second palatal root in a maxillary second molar; however, accurate diagnosis could provide a suitable treatment. Case Presentation: The current study reports on a 20-year-old female with a maxillary second molar with two palatal roots. Using the cold lateral compaction technique, the canals were filled with gutta-percha and AH26 sealer. Additionally, a detail description of the treatment and its management is provided in this report. Conclusions: On the third month of follow-up, all signs had disappeared and the patient showed no sign of periodontal ligament space widening. | en |
