ABSTRACT
Twinned teeth usually appear in the anterior region of the dental arch. Besides orthodontic malocclusions, such as protrusion, crowding, or diastema, they also cause esthetic problems. Different treatment methods can be used according to the requirements of the situation. This article reports multidisciplinary treatment of 2 patients whose maxillary central teeth were twinned with supernumerary incisors. The twinned tooth was reshaped following endodontic treatment in 1 of the patients and orthodontic treatment was performed with edgewise mechanics. In the second case, however, it was determined that the twinned tooth had 2 separate roots. There was also another supernumerary lateral incisor in the dental arch that increased the severity of the crowding. The twinned tooth was hemisected and the other supernumerary tooth was extracted. The patient wore a removable appliance for initial tooth movements and treatment was finished with fixed appliances.
