Abstract

Dens invaginatus (DI) represents a structural defect in the tooth, resulting from invagination of enamel organ into the dental papilla. This rare anomaly, which often goes unnoticed during a clinical examination, is a risk factor for the development of carious lesions and consequently pulpopathies. The knowledge of this type of lesions allows to ensure early diagnosis and thus avoid any complications. This article represents a case report of dens invaginatus along with a literature review regarding etiology, classification, clinical appearance, and diagnosis. It provides also guidelines for decision-making and treatment of invaginated teeth
