Abstract

Bilateral bi-rooted primary canines are a rare dental anomaly and the occurrence with a syndrome is even rarer. This dental anomaly has mostly occurred in African populations. This article reports a case of bi-rooted primary canines bilaterally located in both jaws of a 15-year-old Chinese boy who also suffered from cleidocranial dysostosis (CCD).
