Abstract

Enamel defects related to it’s thickness and quality are called hypoplasia, and they arise from disturbances in the enamel matrix development process. The possible developmental disruptions, which can range from mild changes in enamel mineralization to severe sequestration of the tooth germ, dilations of the crown or root, crown or root duplication, and complete or partial arrest of root formation, are explained by the topographic relationship between the primary tooth and the developing permanent tooth germ. Enamel in Turner's hypoplastic kinds might be shiny, rough, or pitted . It is extremely uncommon for permanent central incisor impaction and inversion to result from trauma, odontomas, and neighboring supernumerary teeth. Root development is restricted when incisors are displaced or impacted in the opposite direction. Dental radiographs and CBCT are used to assess the presence or absence of enamel thickening and inversion. This information is used not only for diagnosis but also to build the best possible treatment plan. Hence a case is presented of Turner’s hypoplasia and maxillary lateral incisor inversion in a 9 yr old female. MESH- Turner’s Hypoplasia, Tooth inversion, CBCT, RVG
