Endodontic Management of Dilacerated Maxillary Central Incisor fused to a Supernumerary Tooth using Cone Beam Computed Tomography: An Unusual Clinical Presentation

Abstract: Aim: The purpose of this report is to present a case of endodontic management of a dilacerated maxillary central incisor fused to supernumerary tooth unusually appearing as a labial tubercle using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) as a diagnostic aid. Background: Anterior teeth are commonly encountered with aberrant anatomical variations in the crown, number of roots, and root canals. Fusion is an infrequent developmental abnormality in shape of the tooth caused by the union of two adjacent tooth germs. A c… Show more

“…When fusion occurs in deciduous anterior teeth, extraction can be done, depending on the case, it is necessary to use space maintainer or dental plastic (Steinbock, et al, 2014). In anterior permanents, the bone tissue is mature, thus, the extraction and installation of implants or orthodontic space correction may be performed (Goh & Tse, 2020;Kim, et al, 2019;Rosas, et al, 2004;Velasco, et al, 1997); Root canal treatment can also be followed by dental plastic surgery (Vinothkumar, et al, 2017;Steinbock, et al, 2014).…”

“…Although the differential diagnosis of an intranasal white mass includes a foreign body, odontoma, osteoma, calcifying odontogenic cyst, and malignant tumours, such as chondrosarcoma and osteosarcoma, the CT findings of tooth-equivalent attenuation and a centrally located cavity are highly discriminating features. 1315
Supernumerary nasal teeth are rare and usually misdiagnosed in rhinology clinicsThese teeth may be surrounded by hypertrophic nasal mucosa or granulation tissueSupernumerary nasal teeth should be confirmed by computed tomography (CT) and endoscopyParanasal sinus CT revealed a white well-defined radiopaque mass in the nasal cavity

“…Nesse sentido, a fusão é uma anormalidade de desenvolvimento infrequente na forma do dente, causada pela união de dois germes dentários adjacentes (Silva et al, 2018;Vinothkumar et al, 2017). Essa alteração pode afetar as dentições decídua e permanente, bem como os dentes supranumerários (Ley et al, 2019).…”

“…Essas anomalias podem resultar em graves problemas no desenvolvimento da dentição se não forem diagnosticadas e tratadas precocemente (Moreira et al, 2016;Saberi et al, 2016). Diante disso, a tomografia computadorizada de feixe cônico (TCFC) é um exame imprescindível para fornecer as informações necessárias para o diagnóstico e planejamento cirúrgico nos casos em que as radiografias convencionais não revelam informações conclusivas (Vinothkumar et al, 2017;Smail-Faugeron et al, 2016;Castro et al, 2014).…”
