Abstract
In this case report, we present a maxillary first molar with six canals. A 40-year-old male patient was referred for non-surgical root canal therapy of tooth 16. Under magnification of a surgical operating microscope, a unique morphology with double canal systems in each root was identified. The morphology was characterized by a single palatal root with two canals joining in the apical third, two mesiobuccal canals, and two distobuccal canals with one orifice and two separate foramina.
