Popis: Fusion is a developmental anomaly characterized by the union of two adjacent teeth. In this article we report a rare case of bilateral fusion of permanent mandibular second molars with supernumerary teeth. The rarity with which this entity appears, along with its complex characteristics, often make it difficult to treat. The endodontic management of one tooth is described, as well as the successful treatment of a periradicular lesion. A fusão é uma anomalia de desenvolvimento dental caracterizada pela união de dois dentes adjacentes. Devido a baixa freqüência desta alteração e as suas características morfológicas complexa o tratamento, quando indicado, torna-se muitas vezes difícil. Neste artigo iremos relatar um caso raro de fusão bilateral entre os segundos molares inferiores com dentes supranumerários.
