Root canal treatment is a fundamental aspect of endodontic therapy that aims to treat and preserve teeth affected by pulpal or periapical diseases. However, the success of root canal treatment heavily relies on the accurate identification and effective management of anatomical variations in root canal morphology. Anatomical variations, such as extra canals, isthmuses, apical deltas, and accessory canals, present challenges to clinicians during treatment planning and execution. 

This abstract highlights the importance of identifying and managing anatomical variations in root canals to enhance the success rate of endodontic procedures. The identification of these variations can be achieved through a combination of clinical examination, radiographic analysis, and advanced imaging techniques such as cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Furthermore, the understanding of root canal anatomy and its variations is crucial for successful negotiation, cleaning, shaping, and obturation of the root canal system. 

Several strategies for managing anatomical variations in root canals will be discussed. These strategies include magnification techniques, ultrasonic irrigation, advanced instrumentation systems, and the use of contemporary biocompatible materials for root canal obturation. Additionally, the importance of effective communication between the endodontist and the restorative dentist will be emphasized to ensure comprehensive treatment planning and long-term success. 

This abstract aims to provide dental professionals with an overview of the identification and management of anatomical variations in root canals. By understanding the complexities associated with root canal morphology, clinicians can improve their diagnostic accuracy, enhance treatment outcomes, and reduce the incidence of treatment failures and complications. Ultimately, this knowledge will contribute to the delivery of high-quality endodontic care and promote the long-term preservation of natural
