Resumo

Introduction and objective: The success of endodontic treatment
requires the knowledge of tooth morphology and its variations.
Case report: This clinical article reports an unusual root canal
configuration that was detected in a maxillary central incisor with
two root canals, demonstrated by radiographic and computerized
tomography exams. Conclusion: Knowledge of endodontic anatomy
as well as the obtainment of both preoperative radiographs and
