Endodontic treatment of these teeth is challenging because it requires identifying the number of root canals. A case of bilateral involvement of maxillary first molar teeth is presented. Endodontic treatment of the right maxillary first molar with taurodontism was indicated due to irreversible pulpitis. In this article, we described the procedure of root canal therapy for this case.http://journals.tums.ac.ir/PdfMed.aspx?pdf_med=/upload_files/pdf/2783.pdf&manuscript_id=2783TaurodontismAnomaly
