Treatment For Type II Dens Invaginatus in a Mandibular Lateral Incisor: A Report of Rare Case
Journal Title: Uluslararası Dis Hekimligi Bilimleri Dergisi - Year 2024, Vol 10, Issue 2
Abstract
Dens invaginatus is one of the developmental anomalies of the tooth which occurs with an invagination of the enamel organ into the dental papilla during tooth development. This anomaly presents a wide spectrum of morphological variations. According to Oehlers classification, in dens invaginatus type II the invagination invades above the cemento-enamel junction, connecting to the pulp; however, there is no connection with the periodontal ligament. This abnormity presents significant challenge when root canal treatment is necessary. The most frequently affected teeth are permanent maxillary lateral incisors, followed by permanent maxillary central incisors. There are limited case reports of mandibulary central incisors; however, there is no publication of mandibular lateral incisors with dens invaginatus type II. This case report aimed to present cone-beam computed tomography aided diagnosis and treatment for type II dens invaginatus in a mandibular lateral incisor with a talon cusp and a large periapical lesion Conclusion: This case report aimed to present cone-beam computed tomography aided diagnosis and treatment for Type II Dens Invaginatus in a mandibular lateral incisor with a talon cusp and a large periapical lesion.
