Aberrant talon cusps: report of two cases

J Indian Soc Pedod Prev Dent. 2006 May:24 Suppl 1:S7-10.

Abstract

Talon cusp is an uncommon anomaly seen both in primary and permanent dentition. In most instances they are associated with other clinical problems such as occlusal interferences, poor esthetics and caries susceptibility. Management of such instances requires a comprehensive knowledge of the clinical entity as well as the problems associated with it. Here, we present two cases of talon cusps.
