description C-shaped configuration in the upper maillary first molar is an extremely rare appearance (0.12%). This case reports management of the tooth with such a configuration as well as depiction of its internal morpholgy and external morphology through spiral computed tomography and dentascan in the contralateral tooth with similar morphology. After careful clinical observation and confirmation through spiral computed tomography, it was concluded that the teeth had Melton category I configuration with fused roots.
