Özet

Dens in dente, also known as dens invaginatus, dilated composite odontoma or deep foramen caecum, is a developmental malformation which usually affects maxillary incisor teeth, particularly lateral incisors. It may occur, however, in teeth anywhere within the jaws but other locations are comparatively rare. It can occur within both the crown and the root, although crown invaginations are more common. In this paper a case of multiple bilateral dens in dente involving maxillary and mandibular premolars is presented.
