Bilateral Mandibular Dens Evaginatus: A Report of Two Cases and Short Review
نویسندگان
چکیده
Accessory cusps are common variations of tooth morphology that are occasionally seen clinically. Most commonly occurs in Asians. While its presence may not be a cause for alarm in most instances, it can sometimes lead to serious consequences if it is damaged. This article will highlights the various types of dens evaginatus, and periodic dental surveillance, which include monitoring of the degree of attrition and tooth vitality to prevent the advanced consequences of additional tooth projections.

متن کاملDens evaginatus of anterior teeth (talon cusp): report of five cases.
The talon cusp, or dens evaginatus of anterior teeth, is a relatively rare dental developmental anomaly characterized by the presence of an accessory cusplike structure projecting from the cingulum area or cementoenamel junction. This occurs in either maxillary or mandibular anterior teeth in both the primary and permanent dentition. This article reports five cases of talon cusp, two of them bi...

Dens evaginatus is a dental anomaly found predominantly in people of Mongoloid origin. Dentists practising in Western countries should also be aware of this condition because of the increasing migration of people from Asia. Supernumerary premolars are uncommon but may be found incidentally during radiographic examination of teeth with dens evaginatus. This article reports 2 cases of concomitant...
متن کاملDens evaginatus on occlusal surface of maxillary second molar: a case report.
Dens evaginatus is a rare dental anomaly characterized by the development of a tubercle on the occlusal surface of the tooth and can cause pulpitis, pulp necrosis, and periapical periodontitis due to tubercular fracture or attrition. Unlike with caries, pain caused by dens evaginatus may manifest itself in a distant location. Therefore, diagnosing the cause of that pain may prove problematic. D...
متن کاملConservative Management of Dens Evaginatus: Report of Two Unusual Cases
Dens evaginatus (DE) is a rare developmental anomaly characterized by presence of an extra cusp arising from occlusal or lingual surfaces. Isolated occurrence or concomitant presence of DE with other dental anomalies has been reported. DE commonly affects permanent teeth and is rarely seen in primary dentition. Treatment may be conservative or radical. This article presents two unusual cases of...
