Representative micro-CT images of a 3D printed mandibular first molar tooth replica with an MM canal (3D reconstruction and superimposition of the root canal system in the mesial root before and after instrumentation). A The mesial root curved distally (before instrumentation, a clinical view); B the root canal configuration in the mesial root before instrumentation (a proximal view); C the root canal configuration in the mesial root after instrumentation with OneShape (a proximal view); D superimposition of the root canal configurations in the mesial root pre-(red) and post-instrumentation (green)
