Permanent mandibular incisor with multiple anomalies - report of a rare clinical case

permanent mandibular central incisor is rarely affected by tooth shape anomalies of crown and root. co-occurrence of multiple anomalies in a permanent mandibular central incisor is extremely rare. this paper reports an unusual concurrent combination of multiple dental anomalies affecting both the crown and root of a permanent mandibular left central incisor - talon cusp, dens invaginatus, short root anomaly and macrodontia -, which has not previously been reported together. case management is described and implications are discussed. the dentist should be aware of these rare entities in order to provide an accurate diagnosis and management for which detailed examination of the tooth both clinically and radiographically is very important.
