“…Radiographically, in case of fusion, there are usually two separate canals, whereas in gemination, there is usually one common root canal. (10) In the case presented here, there was no reduction in the number of teeth and the two crowns shared a common root. Hence, the diagnosis of germination was made.…”

“…According to the specific nature of problem, various treatment approaches are available which include surgical extraction, endodontic therapy, surgical division of the double teeth when the degree of fusion is mild or selective grinding in order to reduce the width. (10) In the present case, as the anomalous tooth was a third molar and it was pulpally infected, the patient was advised for surgical extraction rather than opting for conservative procedures.…”

Geminated teeth are anomalies which arise from an attempt at division of a single tooth germ by an invagination, with resultant incomplete formation of two teeth. These anomalies may develop during tooth bud morpho differentiation as a result of a developmental aberration of the ectoderm and mesoderm. Gemination is more common in the deciduous dentition compared to permanent dentition and that in the posterior permanent dentition is extremely rare. Here, we present a rare occurrence of gemination associated with the mandibular third molar.

OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to determine the correlation of chronological age with the maturation stages of mandibular third molar. METHODOLOGY: This descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted at Sardar Begum Dental College, Gandhara University Peshawar on 384 patients from January 2018 to June 2018 and included patients having age 11-26 years with good quality Orthopantomogram showing mandibular third molar tooth germs bilaterally. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 22. p ≤ 0.05 was considered as statistically significant. RESULTS: Females 286 (74.5%) were predominant than males 98 (25.5%) with mean age presentation of 18.12±3.03 years. The most frequent stage of Demirjian’s stages of mandibular third molar was stage F (24.7%). Pearson correlation showed that maturation stages of mandibular third molars were significantly related to the chronological age ( r=0.446, p value=0.00). CONCLUSION: A correlation between maturation stages of mandibular third molars and chronological age existed.
