Reportedly, maxillary premolars are the most complex teeth for performing endodontic treatment,[1] with root canals varying based on race, genetic predisposition, diet, region, gender,[2] and perhaps age. To date, few detailed studies have been conducted to assess number of roots and root canal morphology of maxillary premolars in the elderly. The present study analyzed root canal morphology of maxillary premolars in elderly individuals using cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT), which has substantial clinical value in guiding endodontic treatment.[3]
