Detection, characterisation and management of complex root canal configurations in the mesiobuccal roots of maxillary first molars: A case series

This report presents the detection, characterisation, instrumentation and filling of complex canal configurations in the mesiobuccal (MB) root of maxillary first molars. Three patients were referred for root canal treatment in first maxillary molars. Medical history, age, sex and clinical findings w...
