Abstract
A Unique Syndrome of Gemination and External/ Internal Root Resorptions in One Dental Arch: A Case Report
Highlights
Developmental dental disorders and malformed teeth may be due to congenital, inherited, acquired or idiopathic reasons causing anomalies in tooth number, size, shape and structure
Dental literature, considering a unique syndrome of two distinct developmental disruptions; fusion and gemination teeth and morphological irregularities; external/internal root resorptions caused by trauma or disease in one dental arch was reviewed
Dental literature, considering such uncommon syndrome of distinct developmental disruption and root resorption caused by trauma or disease in a one dental arch was reviewed
Summary
Developmental dental disorders and malformed teeth may be due to congenital, inherited, acquired or idiopathic reasons causing anomalies in tooth number, size, shape and structure. Gemination is, when there is a division of a single tooth germ by invagination with the resultant incomplete or complete formation of two teeth [1,2,3,6,7,8,9] The prevalence of these anomalies; fusion and gemination and two distinct morphological characteristics/patterns; inflammatory internal and external root resorptions and their physiologic/transient; have been individually distinguished and well documented in the dental literature [1,2,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22]. The night guard can be customized to prevent snoring at night as well
