The permanent maxillary lateral incisors are of great importance from an aesthetic standpoint, as any variation in their shape can lead to an unfavorable visual appearance. Furthermore, morphological variations such as peg-shaped,... more
Physiological stress disrupts normal growth creating visible grooves on the enamel surface (i.e., linear enamel hypoplasia or LEH). Hypoplastic defects often, but not always, co-occur with internal accentuated lines (AL). Monkeys... more
ABSTRACTTalon cusp is a rare developmental extra cusp-like projection on the cingulum area of affected anterior teeth that may cause various functional and aesthetic problems. The present report describes a case of bilateral palatal talon... more
A talon cusp is a relatively rare dental developmental anomaly characterized by the presence of accessory cusp-like structure projecting from the cingulum area or cementoenamel junction. It is frequently found on the palatal surface of... more
ABSTRACTFusion and talon cusps are rare developmental dental anomalies affecting both primary and permanent dentitions. Talon cusps normally occur on the palatal surface of permanent maxillary incisors, while fused teeth are more common... more
A talon represents basically a shape, which is commonly referred to the one of the birds of prey. Histologically, it has been seen that normal tooth tissue varying from enamel, dentin and pulp may be present within the extra cusp. When... more
The term talon cusp refers to a rare developmental dental anomaly characterized by a cusp-like structure projecting from the cingulum area or cement-enamel junction. This condition can occur in the maxillary and mandibular arches of the... more
Dens invaginatus is a rare developmental anomaly. It is unusual to find this anomaly in primary dentition. Diagnosis of this dens invaginatus is important due to possible pulpal involvement. Not only that, simultaneous presence of other... more
Talon cusp is an uncommon anomaly, whose etiology may be disturbances in the morphodifferentiation stage. Dens in dente is also a rare anomaly that is challenging in clinic as it may cause pulp necrosis or periapical lesions due to the... more
A talon cusp is an uncommon anomaly in the primary dentition (10%) as compared to the permanent dentition (90%). Since it was first reported in 1977, there have been only 37 documented cases in normal children. Most cases involve the... more
Talon cusp is a rare dental anomaly that occurs more frequently in maxillary incisors and is defined as a projection in the area of the cincture of anterior teeth that extends from the cemento-enamel junction or the region of the... more
Variations and Changes in the morphological structures are seen with human teeth, such changes are seen as accessory cusp or roots. Accessory cusps are common alterations in the teeth morphology. The commonest accessory cusps are the... more

Central accessory cusp in primary molars is an extremely rare condition which is due to abnormal proliferation and folding of inner enamel epithelium during morphodifferentiation stage of tooth development. The extension of the pulp in... more
Developmental malformation resulting from invagination of enamel organ into dental papillae which begins at the crown and sometimes extends into the root before occurrence of calcification is known as dens invaginatus. A 12 year old male... more

Dens in dente, also known as dens invaginatus and dilated compound odontoma, is a malformation that can occur on primary, permanent, or supernumerary teeth that is characterized by a deep invagination of the surface of a crown or root... more
A case with two simultaneous dens invaginations (DIs) and one dens evagination (DE) in a permanent maxillary lateral incisor is reported for the first time in a 21-year-old girl. DE known as talon cusp of the anterior teeth is a rare... more
Dens invaginatus is a rare developmental morphoanatomical variation resulting from the infolding of the dental papilla before biological mineralization that allows the invagination of inner dental epithelium. Permanent maxillary lateral... more

Dens in dente, also known as dens invaginatus and dilated compound odontoma, is a malformation that can occur on primary, permanent, or supernumerary teeth that is characterized by a deep invagination of the surface of a crown or root... more
Talon cusp is a rare dental anomaly that appears as a cusp-like projection on anterior teeth. Although numerous articles considering this anomaly have been published, this report has displayed a unique presentation of talon cusp. This... more
Dens evaginatus is a developmental malformation characterized by the presence of an extra cusp that takes the form of a tubercle arising from the occlusal or lingual surface of tooth. It frequently affects maxillary permanent incisors.... more
Talon cusp is an odontogenic anomaly in anterior teeth, caused by hyperactivity of enamel in morphodifferentiation stage. Talon cusp is an additional cusp with several types based on its extension and shape. It has enamel, dentin, and... more
Introduction: The talon cusp is defined as a developmental anomaly in which an accessory cusp-like structure projects in the area of the cingulum or cementoenamel junction in the anterior teeth attached to the lingual surface of the... more
