Talon cusp is a tooth anomaly that affects both the primary and the permanent dentitions. However, the occurrence of this anomalous cusp is rather infrequent in the primary dentition. Only 7 cases of bilateral talon cusps affecting the primary teeth have been reported in the dental literature. This is a case report of bilateral talon cusps on primary maxillary central incisors whose histologic evaluation revealed the existence of pulpal tissue in the anomalous cusps.
融合尖牙是一种影响乳牙列和恒牙列的牙齿发育异常。然而,这种异常尖牙在乳牙列中相当罕见。牙科文献中仅报道了7例双侧融合尖牙累及乳牙的病例。本文报告一例上颌乳中切牙双侧融合尖牙,其组织学评估显示异常尖牙中存在牙髓组织。
