Root canal therapy of an anomalous maxillary central incisor: a case report

A case of endodontic conservative treatment of a maxillary central incisor with an atypical crown and Type III dens invaginatus is presented. The greatest difficulty was to locate the root canals due to the atypical internal anatomy. There were not two clear canals, but the coronal pulp chamber showed two entrances to the root canal. The tooth presented a distal periodontal pocket and various lingual radicular grooves. The appearance of the crown was improved by alteration of its dimension using diamond rotary instruments and correction with photopolymerized resin.
