Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Dentistry
  • Dental Anatomy
  • Oral Radiology

Background:

  • Primary teeth anomalies are uncommon.
  • Root morphology variations can impact dental treatment.
  • Early diagnosis of dental abnormalities is crucial for child oral health.

Observation:

  • A 6-year-old male presented with symptoms related to a primary molar.
  • Radiographic examination revealed an unexpected finding in all four primary canines.
  • The patient exhibited bifurcation of the roots of all primary canines.

Findings:

  • The case presents a rare occurrence of birooted primary canines.
  • The prevalence of this specific anomaly in primary dentition is largely unknown globally.
  • Existing literature primarily focuses on birooted permanent canines.

Implications:

  • Understanding the etiology of primary canine root bifurcation is needed.
  • This anomaly may have implications for the developing permanent dentition.
  • Careful radiographic assessment is vital before endodontic therapy or extraction of primary canines.
