Odontodysplasia involving single tooth: A rare entity

Abstract

Odontodysplasia is the developmental anomaly caused due to disturbances in the ectodermal and mesodermal component of the tooth. Although it involves multiple teeth in a quadrant, the involvement of a single tooth germ is very rare. The present report is a case of odontodysplasia involving a single maxillary central incisor.
