Introduction: For the successful endodontics all the presenations of the root canals have to be well understood. Hence in this study we aim to assess the presence of the middle mesial canal mandibular molars in a territary hospital by CBCT. Materials and Methods: We considered 100 subjects whose CBCT images were collected at the institutional department of endodontics. The shape and presence of MMC, canals and number of roots, were evaluated in mandibular molars with no previous restorations or therapies. Thus collected data was analyzed keeping p <0.05 as significant. Results: Out of 254 teeth assessed middle mesial canals found in 30 teeth with an overall prevalence of 10 percent with significantly higher prevalence in first molar than second molar. There was no statistical correlation between the existence of MMCs and demographics. Conclusion: we can conclude that, the total prevalence of MMC was 10%. And mostly seen in the first mandibular molar.
