Abstract

Development of tooth is a dynamic process where the final form and structure of the tooth is achieved by the continuous interplay of physiological and morphological stages. Interference in any of the above-mentioned process will result into diversity in tooth size, shape and number. A very rare case comprising multiple dental anomalies in one tooth; unilateral supernumerary tooth with Talon’s cusp in the maxillary canine region and its management is presented in this report. This case involves a 13-year-old female with Supernumerary Tooth with Talon’s cusp on left side located in palate region. Management of such case becomes important because if it remains embedded, it may cause disturbance to the developing tooth, aesthetic and/or functional concerns especially if it is situated in the maxillary anterior region.
