I'd sure appreciate some tips in how to find more 4th canals.

I'm pressing my luck to think I may be able to get out an email.
I've only received a total of 10 emails from IDF and ROOTS this week.
The attached images were taken using a Nikon Coolpix 950 on an Optique
microscope using a xenon light source.
Notice that image #5 is a bit cloudy. I turned down the scope light
to see the effect it would have on the image and it was a tad dark so
I lightened it in Photoshop. I should have sized the images larger.
This is tooth #15 that I treated yesterday. I found four canals in
100% of the 2nd molars I treated yesterday. Of course, I only treated
one 2nd molar yesterday!
