Twin Tooth on Either Side: A Case Report of Bilateral Gemination
A 25-year-old male patient reported to our clinic with the complaint of decay in the right back region of the upper jaw. On clinical examination, dentinal caries was observed on the occlusal surface of upper right first molar. Macrodontia was observed in relation to the maxillary central incisors. The central incisors were larger in the mesiodistal dimension. There was a notching present in relation to the incisal edge of the macrodonts. On the right central incisor, the notch continued cervically as a shallow groove [], whereas on the left central incisor, the groove continued only till the middle third of the crown. The lateral incisors were placed palatally. The patient had normal compliment of teeth for his age. The intra-oral periapical radiograph of the maxillary anterior region revealed large crowns of the central incisors bilaterally. A radiolucent notch was observed in relation to the incisal edges of the central incisors []. Relatively large pulp chambers and root canals were observed in relation to the central incisors, which suggestive of bilateral gemination.\nSince the patient was not concerned about the esthetic problems due to macrodontia, only composite restoration in relation to the right maxillary first molar was done.
