Abstract
‘Dens invaginatus’ (DI) is a developmental anomaly of teeth, where an infolding of the enamel occurs into the dentine, creating a pocket or a dead space, as a result of the invagination of the enamel organ into the dental papilla prior to calcification. DI have been reported in 0.3–10% of the population. This case describes the comprehensive management of a 9-year-old child with multiple dens invaginatus. CPD/Clinical Relevance: Early diagnosis and early intervention of DI is important to avoid dental caries, pulpitis and pulp death.
