Rare anatomical variations of third molars: Two cases reported

The size of tooth and appearance are being easily noticed. The crown of the tooth is being affected by the majority of pathological variations in the morphology of tooth. Variations in the morphology of tooth have been a topic of interest to dentists since long time. We report here, two rare cases of four-rooted maxillary third molar and three-rooted mandibular third molar. Extraction of such type of teeth is considered to be a difficult task. We had managed extraction of these teeth with absence of any postoperative complications and teeth were being extracted in-toto.
