Abstract
Talons cusp is an uncommon developmental dental anomaly characterized by presence of an accessory cusp like structure projecting from tooth neck towards incisal edge. This anomaly commonly affects permanent dentition than primary dentition. This article describes early diagnosis and management of two patients with talons cusp. Conservative treatment by selective grinding , followed by fluoride varnish application was done. The patients were followed up for one year without any complications. This indicates conservative means of management to be the most desirable way of managing such 啊anomalies.
