Endodontic Treatment of Atypical Partial Fused Permenant Lower Central Incisor: A Case Report

Abstract

Fusion, gemination and concrescence are developmental anomalies of the dental hard tissue. Fusion is defined as the embryologic union of two dental germs and characterized by an enlarged crown. If it occurs early, two developing teeth could unite to form an almost normal single tooth. However, if it occurs late, one tooth with double normal size may develop. These anomalies may require endodontic and surgical treatment for functional, orthodontic or aesthetic reasons. The purpose of this case report was to present the multidisciplinary treatment of a patient who had a permanent mandibular left central incisor atypical partial fused with a supernumerary incisor

Atipik parsiyel füzyon gösteren alt santral dişin endodontik tedavisi: Vaka raporu

Abstract

Füzyon, geminasyon ve konkresens diş sert dokularının gelişimsel anomalisi sonucu meydana gelmektedir. Füzyon, embriyolojik dönemde iki dental germin kaynaşmasıyla oluşan dental yapının, geniş bir kuron şeklinde ağızda görülmesidir. Ancak füzyon, embriyolojik geç dönemde gerçekleşirse normal boyutunun iki katı kadar bir diş oluşurken, erken dönemde gerçekleşmesi durumunda neredeyse normal boyutta tek diş gelişebilmektedir Bu anomalilerin tedavisi, fonksiyonel ve estetik nedenlerle endodontik, cerrahi, ortodontik veya estetik tedavi yaklaşımları gerektirebilmektedir. Bu olgu raporunda da, supernumerer keser diş ile atipik parsiyel füzyon gösteren sol alt santral dişin multidisipliner tedavisi sunulmaktadır
