Bilateral Supernumerary Deciduous Maxillary Lateral Incisors with Fusion: Report of a Rare Case
نویسندگان
چکیده
Dental anomaly in number, size and shape might be due to excessive activation of dental lamina during the morpho-differentiation stage. Fusion is one of the most unusual and rare anomalies of shape of the teeth. It frequently involves the supernumerary teeth resulting in a challenging differential diagnosis with gemination. Dental anomalies may result in different problems such as delayed eruption and crowding; thus, early diagnosis is required for effective intervention and proper in-time treatment. The case reported here is a 4-year-old girl with bilateral supernumerary primary maxillary lateral incisors associated with fusion between primary maxillary left lateral incisor and supernumerary lateral tooth.

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Supernumerary tooth (ST) is considered as a developmental tooth abnormality in number that most often occurs in the anterior region of the maxilla. They may erupt or remain impacted in the alveolar bone. The impacted teeth can cause eruptional disturbances for the adjacent developing teeth. CASE REPORT: A case of bilateral supplemental maxillary lateral incisors in a nonsynd...
متن کاملEarly Diagnosis of Bilateral Supplemental Primary and Permanent Maxillary Lateral Incisors: A Case Report
Supernumerary teeth occur frequently in permanent dentition, but they are rarely found in primary dentition. Supernumerary teeth of orthodox shape and size that resemble normal dentition are called 'supplemental teeth'. Supplemental teeth are less common than supernumerary teeth and are often overlooked because of their normal shape and size.Supplemental teeth may cause esthetic problems, delay...

Fusion is an anomaly manifested in both deciduous and permanent dentitions. Triple tooth refers to the union of three separate tooth entities. It can involve the normal dentition or supernumerary teeth. Triplication is rarely encountered in deciduous and permanent dentition with an incidence of 0.02%. The case presented herein describes a rare case of triplication in permanent maxillary incisor...

متن کاملNon-syndromic bilateral supplemental maxillary lateral incisors: a rare case.
Supernumerary teeth or hyperdontia are defined as the teeth that exceeds the normal dental formula, regardless of their location and morphology. A supernumerary tooth is a developmental anomaly and it has been argued to arise from multiple aetiologies. Supernumerary teeth with orthodox shapes and sizes, that resemble the normal dentition are called 'supplemental teeth'. The supplemental teeth a...
