Abstract:
Differential growth of the epithelial diaphragm is needed for the formation of multiple roots in the primary and permanent dentitions. In most instances, the mandibular premolars possess a single root. It is a very unusual event to find a case of bilateral multi-rooted first and second mandibular premolars. This paper presents such a case.
