Abstract

Dens invaginatus is one of developmental malformations of teeth, which most commonly affects permanent maxillary lateral incisors. The incidence is rare in our population. The malformation has a wide array of morphological varieties, which usually cause a rapid dental pulp necrosis. Endodontic therapy is very difficult. The authors describe the etiology, classification, incidence, diagnostics and treatment of this anomaly. In this work they also describe a case of the rare radicular form of this tooth anomaly in a 11-year-old girl. Towards the end, the authors put emphasis on thorough examination of lateral permanent incisors shortly after eruption, which can help detect this anomaly in time.
