Double bilateral dens invaginatus in the maxillary incisor region.

Two cases of bilateral double dens invaginatus in the maxillary incisor region have been reported. One of the patients (Case 1), a 12-year-old boy, had double invaginations in both of the erupted teeth in the maxillary lateral incisor region. The other patient (Case 2), a boy 8 years of age, had double invaginations in each of the two partially developed supernumerary teeth that were impacted in the palate in the maxillary central incisor region. Double bilateral dens invaginatus would appear to be a most unusual occurrence.

Intraoral actinomycosis. Report of five cases.

Five intraoral presentations of actinomycetes are recorded, in three of which the infection was almost certainly specifically due to the microorganisms. The importance of careful histopathologic examination is underlined, and the failure in some cases to investigate apparently simple infections bacteriologically is highlighted.

Extraradicular communicating dens invaginatus.

The morphologic occurrence of dens invaginatus often results in pathologic involvement of the pulp and associated periodontal tissues. Treatment must include endodontic therapy to reduce the organic and infectious content of the pulp and invaginated tract. Concervative therapy, however, is frequently insufficient to eliminate the irritant force to a level that is biologically acceptable to the host. Therefore, surgical intervention has been considered by most authors to be the most acceptable approach for correction of the deformity and associated alveolar defects. Both cases reviewed here represent the dens invaginatus type of malformations that have primary zones of irritation within the anomalous tract. A report similar to our Case 2 appeared in the literature 2 weeks after initial therapy of the nonpupally involved lateral incisor. These cases are published to document the occurrence of these forms of dens invaginatus and their associated periradicular pathosis, to recommend treatment, and to note the apparent favorable response to the involved tissues.

Familial hypoparathyroidism with candidiasis and mental retardation.

Five new cases of the syndrome of hypoparathyroidism, candidiasis, and mental retardation are described and the importance of the dental findings in contributing toward a definite diagnosis is stressed. The close consanguineous relationship of the parents, first cousins in all of these cases, makes imperative the consideration of the concept that the syndrome is a congenital defect, transmitted by a recessive gene.
