title: Double tooth in mandibular incisor region: a case report.
abstract: Double tooth is a term used to describe connate tooth and includes both dental fusion and gemination. Fusion refers to the union of two tooth germs resulting in a single large tooth. Owing to its irregular morphology, this anomaly can cause unpleasant aesthetic appearance. The diagnosis is based on the clinical findings and radiographic examination. We hereby discuss a case of fusion in a 30-year-old woman.
