dens invagination is a developmental anomaly requiring specific treatment approaches. oehler's type iii dens in dente, extends into the root and perforates at the apical area or lateral surface of the root. in this case endodontic treatment of the invaginated tooth was carried out through the central lumen of the invagination with calcium hydroxide without manipulation of the main pulp canal, t...

Dens invaginatus is a relatively common dental malformation resulting from an infolding of enamel organ into the dental papilla varying in depth into the tooth tissues. Complex morphological anatomy associated with the pulpal pathology presents inaccessibility to completely remove the necrotic pulp tissues and hence poses challenges in rendering endodontic treatment. A combination of nonsurgica...

The aim of this paper is to describe a unique and unusual case of concomitant appearance of morphological dental anomalies in the maxillary anterior region, along with its management in a patient with no systemic abnormality. This case report describes the clinical and radiographic features of talon cusp, dens invaginatus, shovel-shaped incisors and a supernumerary tooth occurring in a single p...

The developmental abnormality of tooth resulting from the infolding of enamel/dentin into the root is called dens invaginatus. Management of such cases is usually challenging due to the morphological complexity of root canal system. This report presents a rare treatment protocol of a clinical case of Oehler's type III dens invaginatus combined with an endodontic lesion in a vital maxillary late...

The purpose of this paper was to describe the conservative treatment adopted in one nonsyndromic patient presenting with shovel-shaped upper incisors and dens invaginatus. A 13-yearold female patient sought treatment reporting pain in response to cold stimuli in the upper anterior teeth. Four upper incisors with shovel-shaped anatomical alterations in the palatal side of the crown were detected...

We present the management of a case of Type II dens invaginatus in a mandibular premolar with a large invagination in the coronal third of the root on mesial aspect of the crown in proximity of cementoenamel junction significantly compromising the strength of the crown structure. We describe in detail the various measures taken to assess the internal tooth structure destruction and enhance the ...
