SUGGESTED ARTICLE ABSTRACT
Nonsurgical Management of a Dilacerated Maxillary Lateral Incisor with Type III Dens Invaginatus: A Case Report
Tom G. Gound, DDS, MS, and David Maixner, DDS
Type III dens invaginatus is a developmental anomaly characterized by an enamel-lined channel that originates on the coronal surface and passes epically through part or all of the root and exits into the periodontal ligament. In this case report, a 13-yr-old male had a Type III dens that same level, the midroot level of tooth #7. At that same level, the root dilacerated severely to the mesial, and a periradicular radiolucency was present on the distal. A 12-mmperiodontal defect was present on tooth #6 and sinus tract was present. All maxillary anterior teeth responded normally to pulp vitality testing, and no other abnormal probing depths were present. The channel opening in the crown was located, and the channel was negotiated, enlarged, and filled with calcium hydroxide. Thirteen week later, the probing was normal and the canal was obturated with gutta-percha and restored. Two-and-6-yr recalls showed complete healing of the bony defects and continued normal responses to vitality testing.
