    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Orthodontics
    • Pediatric Dentistry

    Background:

    • Class III malocclusion presents complex orthodontic challenges, particularly with superimposed dental anomalies.
    • Double teeth (geminated or fused teeth) require specialized management strategies.

    Observation:

    • A 9-year-old boy exhibited bilateral double upper central incisors and a Class III skeletal relationship.
    • Abnormal root morphology and eruption paths were noted in the affected incisors.

    Findings:

    • The double teeth were successfully retained, avoiding extraction.
    • Orthodontic treatment corrected the anterior incisor relationship.
    • Surgical exposure of the impacted double teeth promoted favorable eruption.

    Implications:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • This case highlights the potential for conservative management of double teeth in conjunction with orthodontic correction.
    • Successful outcomes demonstrate the importance of tailored treatment plans for complex pediatric dental anomalies.
    • Early intervention and surgical exposure can guide the eruption of abnormally developing teeth, preserving the dental arch.
