“…The presence of this talon cusp is not forever an indication for dental cure unless it is associated with clinical problem. The problems of talon cusp are functional , pathological, diagnostic and esthetics [1,6]. This report showes two cases of talon cusp, one on a maxillary bilateral central and lateral incisor and another on a maxillary central tooth.…”

“…When examined from incisal margin, the morphology seem as either "T, " "Y, "or "π" shape for major, minor, or bifid talon cusp. [6] In case 1, the talon cusp classification is type 1 ( true talon ), whereas in case 2, the type 2 ( semi talon ) talon cusp classification is included.…”

“…After each procedure the tooth surface must be covered with a desentisizing agent or fluoride varnish [16]. Sometimes,less conservative methods can be used, including complete reduction of cusp followed by calcium hydroxide/ mineral trioxide aggregate pulpotomy or canal therapy or extraction followed by orthodontic correcti-on and prosthetic rehabilitation [6].…”

“…It arises during the morphodifferentiation stage of tooth development [5]. It was also reported in association with syndromes, for example, Mohr syndrome, Incontinenta pigmentii Achromians, Ellis van creveld syndrome, Struge Weber syndrome, Rubinstein Taybi syndrome, and Alagille's syndrome [6].…”

The talon is an accessory, irregular cusp on incisors and canines, involving in enamel and dentine with or without pulp tissue.It was also reported in association with syndromes, for example, Mohr Syndrome, Incontinenta pigmentii Achromians, Ellis-van Creveld Syndrome, Struge Weber Syndrome, Rubinstein Taybi Syndrome, and Alagille's Syndrome. The aim of this paperwas to describe talon tubercules in two cases. In first case the talon cusp is seen on lingual surface of the maxillary left central tooth and there is a specific talon tubercle which extending from the incisal edge to the cervical edge, perpendicular to the mesiodistal surface of the tooth. In second case bilateral talon tubercles were detected extending from the cervical region less than half of the incisal margin on the lingual surface of the maxillary central and lateral teeth. This present two case reports radiograph gives a v-shaped radiopaque image.Talon tubercle is a dental anomaly we rarely encounter. Consequently this anomaly may occur with a systemic syndrome Therefore, clinicians should have adequate knowledge of this anomaly.

“…Management includes no treatment, sequential grinding, pit and fissure sealing, pulp therapy, restorative treatment, full crown coverage, extraction of the affected tooth and eliminating tongue irritation. 16 Asymptomatic anterior double tooth should be left alone unless problems arise with esthetics, spacing, and dental caries. 2 Simple composite restorations or pit and fissure sealants can be used to camouflage and prevent caries development in the fissures.…”
