Abstrakt: Fusion is one of the dental hard tissues anomalies, by the joining of two adjacent teeth. It is believed that some physical forces or pressures cause by physical force prolongs the contact of developing teeth. Fused teeth can be between normal teeth or between normal tooth and supernumerary tooth germ. This case report describes two cases of bilateral fusion of the primary lateral incisors and canine in mandibular arch of 9 and 12 year old male patients. The intraoral periapical radiograph (IOPAR) and Orthopantomogram (OPG) showed mandibular Permanent right and left lateral incisor missing in both the cases. The preventive treatment approach has been done in these cases as no involvement of either caries or periodontal problem in fused teeth. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
