Mandibular molars are frequently affected by dental caries. They exhibit variation in their internal anatomy, thus mandatory to understand in detail about their complex anatomy. Middle mesial canal is the third canal located between mesiolingual and mesiobuccal. Its detection and negotiation is an important practical issue in endodontics. Accordingly, the uses of magnifying aids are indicated to enhance the long-term favorable outcome of endodontic treatment. This case series defines two cases encountered for endodontic management during routine endodontic procedure.
