Abstract
A 7 year and 4 month old boy was referred to the Pedodontic Clinic of Hiroshima University School of Dentistry with a chief complaint of abnormally shaped teeth (21).
He was born of a normal pregnancy and delivery.
Consultation with a pediatrician revealed that his development was normal and very healthy at the time.
The principal observations are as follows:
1) A fused mandibular right central incisor and lateral incisor was found and as well as crowding of that region.
2) Based on the radiographic findings, the apices of the mandibular right central and lateral incisor fused teeth were discovered to be not completely formed.
3) The crowns of the fused teeth were divided with a diamond bar because the roots were separate.
