“…This diagnosis can be discussed in terms of dental fusion due to the difficulty in trying to differentiate between the origin of two teeth from a single germ and the fusion of a normal and supernumerary germ. In some cases, it is difficult to establish a differential diagnosis between fused teeth and geminated teeth, particularly when they are associated with supernumerary teeth (Le Gall et al, 2011). Accordingly, our case corresponded to similar finding.…”

Gemination is an anomaly in size, shape, and structure of the teeth. The primary dentition is more frequently affected, but gemination may occur in permanent dentitions, usually in the maxillary-incisal region. In geminated teeth, incomplete development of two teeth from a single bud results in a larger tooth crown with a single root and canal. In this study, a gemination case in a male patient, 13-year-old, with an ancestry of Aymara, who visited a private clinic in Antofagasta, Chile, for a routine check is presented. On intra-oral clinical examination of the coronary anatomy, the tooth 4.1 was observed with a large crown, bifurcated in the center of incisal zone. In addition, a groove extending from the bifurcation to the cementoenamel junction was noted. Radiographic examination revealed the presence of a single root canal and a single root. The pulp cavity was separated in two cavities, in accordance with the division caused by the observed bifurcation. This report describes a unique case of dental gemination of mandibular permanent central incisor in a subject with Aymara ancestry and discusses the differential diagnosis and possible future treatment options anticipated for this particular case.

“…[1] The incidence of gemination occurs when two teeth originate from one tooth bud and consequently, the patient has a bigger tooth, but the number of teeth is normal. [21,22] This can also cause impaction due to the larger volume of the crown of the geminated tooth. [23] In addition, it can be said that the gemination phenomenon commonly occurs in the anterior maxillary region.…”

“…However, when a normal tooth bud unites to a supernumerary tooth germ, it could also be described as "fusion." [21,22] Fusion is more frequently seen in the anterior mandibular region. [24] In the present case, bilateral mandibular permanent geminated or fused teeth were found clinically and radiographically.…”

Reports in the literature about the craniofacial characteristics of patients with class II division 2 malocclusions show a lot of different patterns accompanied by palatally displaced upper incisors, congenital missing teeth, polydiastema, fusion, germination, tooth impaction, peg-shaped lateral incisors, persistent teeth, hypodontia, persistent deciduous teeth, transpositions, and supernumerary teeth. The following case report focuses on the description of the clinical characteristics observed on a patient with a very unusual conjunction of dental and skeletal anomalies mentioned above, as well as a literature review on the related issues. Extra-intra-oral examinations, radiographic evaluations, orthodontic consultation, and reviewing the literature concluded that this nonsyndromic patient that refused to receive all dental treatment approaches is special with its uniqueness.
