In this paper, by applying bifurcation technique, we obtain that there are two distinct unbounded continua $ \mathcal{C}_k^+ $ and $ \mathcal{C}_k^- $ for a class of discrete Dirichlet problem involving the mean curvature operator which bifurcate from intervals of the line of trivial solutions. Under some suitable conditions on nonlinear term near at the origin, we will show the existence and multiplicity of nontrivial solutions.
