Prevalence of middle mesial canal using cone beam computed tomography: A systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Background: The presence of middle mesial canals in mandibular molars are not commonly encountered in daily practice. However, locating and debriding such anatomical variation during the endodontic therapy is essential to avoid endodontic failure.
