Anatomy & Histology · single question
Among mandibular teeth, which is most commonly noted to have a second (typically lingual) canal in a substantial proportion of cases?
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. Mandibular lateral incisor
Mandibular incisors (both central and lateral) have a reported incidence of a second (lingual) canal in a notably substantial proportion of cases per endodontic anatomy studies — a meaningfully higher incidence than mandibular canines (which have a low reported incidence of a second canal).
