ABSTRACT
Permanent mandibular central incisor is rarely affected by tooth shape anomalies of crown and root. Co-occurrence of multiple anomalies in a permanent mandibular central incisor is extremely rare. This paper reports an unusual concurrent combination of multiple dental anomalies affecting both the crown and root of a permanent mandibular left central incisor - talon cusp, dens invaginatus, short root anomaly and macrodontia -, which has not previously been reported together. Case management is described and implications are discussed. The dentist should be aware of these rare entities in order to provide an accurate diagnosis and management for which detailed examination of the tooth both clinically and radiographically is very important.
RESUMO
O incisivo central inferior permanente raramente é afetado por anomalias de forma envolvendo a coroa e a raiz. A co-ocorrência de múltiplas anomalias em um incisivo central inferior permanente é extremamente rara. Este artigo relata uma combinação concomitante incomum de múltiplas anomalias dentais afetando tanto a coroa quanto a raiz de um incisivo central inferior permanente - cúspide em garra (talon cusp), dens invaginatus, anomalia de raiz curta e macrodontia - que ainda não havia sido descrita na literatura. A condução do caso é descrita e suas implicações são discutidas. É importante que o dentista esteja familiarizado com essas entidades raras a fim de proporcionar diagnóstico e tratamento precisos, para os quais exames clínicos e radiográficos detalhados são extremamente importantes.
