Fusion of teeth
CL Mader
Three case reports of fusion are presented. Clinical problems relating to fusion may be unacceptable appearance or alignment of teeth, and periodontal conditions. It is suggested that all succedaneous teeth that are joined or fused together by dentin be referred to as fused teeth because of the frequent difficulty in differentiating fusion and gemination in the adult dentition.
