Abstract:

  Introduction: Talon cusp is an uncommon odontogenic anomaly that arises during the morphodifferentiation stage of tooth development. This cusp-like structure was first described in 1892 by Mitchell. Maxillary anterior teeth, especially lateral incisors are affected most commonly and it is very rare in the mandible. Occurrence of two talon cusps on a single tooth is very rare but possible.

  Case presentation: A case of two lingual talon cusps concurrently affecting the mandibular left permanent central incisor in an 8-year old male was reported.

  Conclusion: Early diagnosis of Talon cusps is imperative to prevent further complications. A precise medical and family history should always be taken from patients with any kind of dental anomaly.
