Material and Methods:Five clinical cases of successful endodontic treatment of patients with maxillary first premolar and three root canals are described.Result and Discussion: It is noted that good endodontic practice requires good knowledge of dental anatomy and possible variations, accurate X-ray images, as well as use of magnifying equipment.Conclusion: Knowledge of dental anatomy is fundamental for good endodontic practice.
