Frequency and Distribution of Fusion and Gemination in Permanent Dentition: Clinical and Radiological Study

Öz:

Objective: Fusion and gemination are developmentaldental anomalies. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence,localization, distribution according to age and gender of double teeth(fusion and gemination) in permanent dentition. Material and Methods: The presence of a fusion and/or gemination in patients admitted tothe Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology for dental examination was investigated. Diagnoses of fusion and gemination were doneby clinic and radiographic examination. The incidence, age, gender andupper and lower jaw localization were examined. Results: A total of 32double teeth were detected in 30 patients after clinical and radiologicalexamination, and the prevalence was found as 0.47%. Fusion was foundin 22 patients, gemination was in 8 patients. Fusion was seen in two patients bilaterally. Fourteen (43.8%) cases were in the upper jaws and 18(56.2%) cases were in the lower jaws. Mandibular and maxillary molarswere the most commonly affected teeth (n:21, 65.6%). Conclusion: Fusion and gemination are uncommon dental anomalies. A careful clinicaland radiological examination is important in the diagnosis of doubleteeth. Early diagnosis of these teeth is important to prevent possible complications. It will also facilitate treatment procedures such as endodontic, orthodontic or surgery to be performed by the dentist.

Daimi Dentisyonda Füzyon ve Geminasyonun Dağılımı ve Sıklığı: Klinik ve Radyolojik Çalışma

Öz:

Amaç: Füzyon ve geminasyon gelişimsel dental anomalilerdir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, daimî dentisyonda ikiz diş (füzyon ve geminasyon) prevalansını, lokalizasyonunu, yaş ve cinsiyete göre dağılımını değerlendirmektir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Dental muayene için Ağız, Diş ve Çene Radyolojisi kliniğine başvuran hastalarda füzyon ve/veya geminasyon varlığı araştırıldı. Füzyon ve geminasyon tanısı klinik ve radyografik muayene ile konuldu. Yaş, cinsiyet, üst ve alt çenelerdeki lokalizasyonları, görülme sıklıkları değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Klinik ve radyolojik muayeneden sonra 30 hastada toplam 32 ikiz diş tespit edildi ve prevalansı %0,47 olarak bulundu. 22 hastada füzyon ve 8 hastada geminasyon belirlendi. İki hastada bilateral olarak füzyon izlendi. Üst çenede 14 (%43,8) vakada, alt çenede 18 (%56,2) vakada belirlendi. Mandibular ve maksiller molarlar en çok etkilenen dişlerdi (n: 21, %65,6). Sonuç: Füzyon ve geminasyon oldukça nadir görülen dental anomalilerdir. Çift dişlerin tanısında dikkatli bir klinik ve radyolojik muayene önemlidir. Bu dişlerin erken tanısı olası komplikasyonlarının önlenmesi açısından önemlidir. Hekimin uygulayacağı endodontik, ortodontik ya da cerrahi gibi tedavi prosedürlerini de kolaylaştıracaktır.
