Aim: A complete knowledge on the root canal anatomy and morphology is a basic prerequisite for the successful endodontic treatment. Successful endodontic treatment depends on locate all the canals and proper chemomechanical preparation followed by obturation with proper hermetic seal. Failure may occur due to incomplete knowledge and unusual tooth morphology. Mandibular molars may have an extra root when located lingually called radix entomolaris or buccally called radix paramolaris. The successful treatment depend upon the complete Knowledge abnormal root canal morphology.
Case Reports: in this article describe three cases of multirooted mandibular first molar and their successful endodontic treatment. 
Conclusions: For successful endodontic treatment A clinician should have complete knowledge of
normal and abnormal anatomy of mandibular first molar and as well as use of recent
tool of endodontics like computed tomography and the operating microscope
