The most complicalions arised from the fracture of dens evaginatus locating in the central groove on the lower second premolars, Most of cases had incomplately developed roots with wide-open apices and the pulpes were necrotic or inflamed, As to the treatments, the fillings of the pulp canal with Vitapex® (improved Calcium hydride paste) are successfully for the apical closure of immature pulpess teeth.
Excepting the teeth with complications on the fracture of dens evaginatus, eight cases had the other teeth with dens evaginatus. It was considerated that this fact gives effect to the teeth with the complications.
