Abstract: 
Anatomical variation in the number of roots and root canals can occur in any tooth. Aberrant morphology of the root canal system may hinder cleaning and shaping procedures, leading to failure of endodontic treatment. The aim of this paper is to show one an example of root canal anatomical variation. Mandibular canines usually have one root with a centrally located root canal; however, anatomical variation may also exist. In this case report, the author described the successful endodontic treatment of a mandibular canine with two separate roots and root canals.
