Endodontic treatment of a maxillary lateral incisor with vital pulp, periradicular lesion and type III dens invaginatus: a case report

Abstract: Even though there are no symptoms, radiography should be performed in teeth that exhibit anatomical differences from the contralateral tooth. Even if there is extensive apical pathology in a tooth with type III dens invaginatus, pulp sensibility tests should be performed. Correct diagnosis and treatment planning are fundamental when treating dens invaginatus.

“…Oehlers described three types: type I, an enamel invagination in the crown only; type II, an enamel-lined invagination that invades the root but remains confined within it as a blind sac and may communicate with the dental pulp; and type III, an invagination that extends from the crown to the apex and is penetrated by a second foramen laterally or apically on the root surface 6) . A retrospective study of prophylactic invagination treatment by Ridell et al 10) reported that the most common type of tooth with dens invaginatus is the upper lateral incisor (85%), and that the prevalence of type III dens invaginatus is 3.3%.…”

“…Según Meghana & Thyokrishna (1) fue Hallet quien introdujo el término DI para aclarar el punto de la invaginación que presenta esmalte localizado centralmente y dentina periférica, actualmente es el nombre preferido y según Alani & Bishop (7) el más adecuado. Se le conoce también como: odontoma invaginado, diente incluido (8-9) diente telescópico (10). La forma más severa de diente invaginado es llamado odontoma dilatado y este nombre lo sugirió Hunter (1951) citado por Matsusue et al (11), también se le llama odontoma gestante dilatado, odontoma compuesto dilatado y dentoi en diente (12).…”

“…Coletivamente, a fissura labiopalatina apresenta um grande impacto clínico, exigindo atendimento cirúrgico, odontológico, fonoaudiológico e psicológico durante a infância e a adolescência Quando comparado com a população em geral, os indivíduos com fissuras labiopalatinas apresentam maior prevalência de anomalias dentárias, tais como variações no número de dentes e posição e dimensões reduzidas dos dentes, a maioria dos quais estão localizados na área da fissura 5 . Entre as anomalias, destacam-se o dens in dente, taurodontia, hipodontia, dilaceração, fusão, geminação, dentes girovertidos e supranumerários, sendo o exame radiográfico considerado complementar, nestes casos, fundamental na observação de defeitos e variações na estrutura, tamanho, forma e posição dos elementos dentários [6][7][8][9] . O objetivo deste trabalho é realizar criteriosa análise radiográfica do espaço pulpar e suas possíveis alterações relacionadas com as anomalias dentárias que possam comprometer ou alterar o tratamento endodôntico nos indivíduos com fissura.…”
