The root canal systems of maxillary first molar (MFM) and maxillary second molar (MSM) variations represent a clinical challenge for endodontists, especially the prevalence of fused C-shaped roots.

The aim of this article was to present 2 cases of maxillary molar with an unusual C-shaped configuration diagnosed during root canal retreatment/treatment and conduct a literature review of the MFM and MSM anatomy.
