title: Labial and palatal talon cusps on geminated tooth associated with dental root shape abnormality: a case report.
abstract: Talon cusp on a geminated tooth is a very rare condition. To the best of our knowledge, the literature contains only one case report of a labial talon cusp on a geminated tooth. This is the first clinical report describing a case of bilateral talon cusps on geminated permanent maxillary central incisors associated with dental root shape abnormality and its successful management.
