Abstrakt: | Double tooth and talon cusp are tooth shape anomalies with rare co-occurrences in a single tooth. Double tooth is a developmental anomaly that leads to the eruption of fused teeth and may contribute to compromised esthetics, pain, caries, and tooth crowding. Talon cusp is a rare developmental extra cusp-like projection on the cingulum area that may cause functional and esthetic problems. Differential diagnosis of these anomalies may be complicated. A multidisciplinary approach for the esthetic and functional rehabilitation of double teeth is important. Various treatment methods have been described in the literature for the different types and morphological variations of double teeth. The purpose of this paper is to report the case of an unusual combination of double tooth and talon cusp on a permanent maxillary incisor and describe its esthetic and functional rehabilitation using a porcelain laminate veneer. |
