Concurrence of Gemination and Fusion in Maxillary Central Incisors: A Case Report.
Journal of the Tennessee Dental Association 2016 April
This case reports the concurrence of gemination and fusion affecting the maxillary central incisors of a twelve-year-old patient and the collaboration of the pediatric dentist, endodontist, orthodontist and oral and maxillofacial surgeon. Developmental dental anomalies can occur in both primary and permanent dentitions as a result of conjoining defects. Double teeth, or cases of gemination or fusion, are not exceedingly rare, but the presence of both anomalies in a single patient is a rarity. Gemination is the division of a single tooth bud, resulting in a large single tooth with a bifid crown and common root and root canal. Fusion is the union of two separate tooth buds, resulting in a joined tooth with confluence of dentin and separate root canals. Labial apexogenesis with MTA, composite resin placement, re-contouring and orthodontic care allowed proper alignment with long-term monitoring of growth and development for possible incisor replacement.
