hi im post graduate student in endodontics…
i think best way to treat such case is by gaining access to chamber through bucco-occlusal direction in which u can place head of handpiece in buccal vestibule or oral cavity if palatoocclusal direction is selected. For which a thorough radiographic examination required, if u find MB & DB canals more buccal side u can also explore them at the cervical level of tooth…

thats a great idea.
perhaps u can use a pedo handpiece as it is small to gain access.

once for such a case I used a straight air motor handpiece with surgical bur to clean the caries and get access to the canal.

however the original poster proceed ahead with it only if you are sure that you would be able to do crown cutting.
