Dens evaginatus associated with dens invaginatus: A rare case with affected maxillary lateral incisors

抄録

Dens invaginatus and dens evaginatus are dental developmental variations of shape that usually occur in isolation but can be observed in association with other dental anomalies. However, no publications have reported the same patient with maxillary lateral incisors affected one by dens evaginatus (right side) and the other by dens invaginatus (left side). This article presents a case of an 8-year-old boy with the presence of abnormal crown morphology in unerupted permanent maxillary lateral incisors. The right maxillary incisor revealed dens evaginatus and the left maxillary incisor presented dens invaginatus. The treatment plan consisted of following up the eruption of maxillary lateral incisors and prophylactic restorative procedure.
