Abstract

Developmental anomalies of dentition includes abnormalities in teeth size, shape, structure, and number. Dental fusion is one such condition and is one of the most important and frequent developmental dental anomalies that can affect children's oral health. This condition can present various clinical challenges, including aesthetic concerns, occlusal disturbances, and potential impacts on the development and eruption of permanent teeth. The etiology of dental fusion is multifactorial, involving genetic, environmental, and possibly mechanical factors during tooth development. Diagnosis is done based on clinical examination and radiographic imaging to differentiate fusion from other similar anomalies such as gemination and concrescence. The present case report describes dental fusion in primary teeth seen in two young pediatric patients. These case reports aim to provide an overview of the prevalence, diagnosis, and management strategies for fusion in primary teeth, emphasizing the importance of a Pediatric Dentist in optimizing outcomes for affected children.
