A Case of Bilateral Dens Invaginatus Treated Using the Prophylactic Approach.

Dens invaginatus (DI) is a rare developmental defect in dentistry that results from invagination of the enamel organ into the dental papilla during tooth formation. However, such morphology presents cases that challenge treatment and diagnosis because of the morphology of the canal. The present study reports a case of DI in a 12-year-old boy showing a very unusual clinical and radiographic appearance of maxillary lateral incisors. The flowable composite was used to seal the invagination, and an etchant and a bonding agent were used as part of the preventative or prophylactic clinical therapy that was implemented in this instance. This offers a secure and efficient substitute therapy. This method has the potential to yield the greatest results for patients by combining expertise from endodontics and restorative dentistry.
