Triple teeth may result from fusion, gemination or concrescence causing transient esthetic and functional problems in primary dentition and retardation or alteration of development and eruption of permanent successors. We report an unusual case of a boy aged five with fusion among maxillary left primary central incisor, lateral incisor and a supernumerary tooth concomitant with agenesis of permanent lateral incisor. A review of literature on triple tooth was done along with a proposed classification of the triple teeth.
多生牙可能由融合、双生或结合导致,在乳牙列中引起暂时的美观和功能问题,并导致恒牙后继牙发育和萌出延迟或改变。我们报告了一例罕见病例,一名五岁男孩,上颌左侧乳中切牙、侧切牙与一颗多生牙融合,同时伴有恒牙侧切牙先天缺失。我们对多生牙的文献进行了综述,并提出了多生牙的分类方法。
