Talon cusp in primary dentition.

R J Chen, H S Chen

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, and Oral Pathology

|July 1, 1986

Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

Talon cusps, a dental anomaly, were observed in six cases of primary dentition, specifically affecting maxillary central incisors. This finding suggests the anomaly may be as common in primary teeth as in permanent teeth among Chinese children.

Area of Science:

Dental Morphology

Background:

Talon cusp is a rare dental anomaly.
Previous literature has limited case reports on talon cusp in primary dentition.

Observation:

Six new cases of talon cusp in the primary dentition are presented.
The anomaly exclusively affected maxillary primary central incisors.
No associated developmental syndromes were noted in any of the ten reported cases.

Findings:

The reported cases bring the total literature on primary dentition talon cusps to ten.
No talon cusps were observed in the permanent successors of the affected primary teeth.
The incidence in primary dentition may be comparable to that in permanent dentition in Chinese children.

Implications:

Further research is needed to confirm the prevalence of talon cusps in primary dentition.
Early identification of talon cusps is crucial for pediatric dental care.
Understanding the prevalence in specific populations, like Chinese children, aids in targeted dental screenings.
