Concrescence reveals a rare developmental anomaly in which two fully formed teeth are joined along the root surfaces by cementum, and generally occurs in maxillary molars, especially in a third molar and a supernumerary tooth. Very few cases have been reported about the concrescence of a third molar and a supernumerary fourth molar. Based on our available knowledge, this case report described a rare presentation in which concrescence is observed between a third molar and a supernumerary fourth molar in the mandible by diagnosing with cone-beam CT and histological examination.
融合牙表现出一种罕见的发育异常,即两颗完全形成的牙齿通过牙骨质沿着牙根表面相连,通常发生在上颌磨牙,尤其是第三磨牙和多生牙。关于第三磨牙与额外的第四磨牙融合的病例报道极少。基于我们现有的知识,本病例报告描述了一种罕见的情况,即通过锥形束CT诊断和组织学检查,在下颌骨中观察到第三磨牙与额外的第四磨牙之间发生了融合。
