ABSTRACT
A talon cusp is an uncommon dental anomaly showing morphologically well-delineated accessory cusp. It is an anomaly that occurs during morphodifferentiation, and this anomaly may have numerous adverse clinical effects on oral health. Its presence causes the problem in esthetics, caries, and occlusal accommodation for the patient and problems in the diagnosis and clinical management for the dentist. This article presents a case report on talon cusp on the permanent left maxillary central incisor in a 10-year-old female child and its management. The talon cusp often presents as a problem of clinical significance as the maxillary incisor region is also associated with supernumerary tooth, and the dentist needs to reach a definitive diagnosis before managing the problem.
