Talon cusps in mandibular incisors: Report of eight rare cases

Abstract

Talon cusps in mandibular anterior teeth are very rare. Talon cusps in mandibular anterior teeth associated with other anomalies are even rarer and that a bilateral case in the mandible has not been reported before. In this report, eight such rare cases of talon cusps in permanent mandibular incisors are presented. It includes a bilateral case that in the author's knowledge is the first case reported in the English literatures.
