Dens invaginatus as a microsymptom of canine ectopia: a case series

From Volume 2, Issue 3, July 2009 | Pages 90-93

Abstract

Canine ectopia is a frequently occurring orthodontic problem that has been previously linked to a variety of dental anomalies. We report a case series where the presence of ectopic canines has occurred in the presence of different severities of dens invaginatus in the adjacent lateral incisor. This observation has not been reported previously. The implications of this possible link are discussed.
