Suggest Remedy For Appearance Of Fused Tooth

My 6 year daughter has an odd shaped and beige colored lump on the one front tooth she has.

The dentist just diagnosed it as a fused tooth. In addition he has found two teeth growing into what seems the location for the 2nd frotn tooth.

Please let me knwo what he means when he refers to cosmetic options for the fused tooth as well as any other known succesful options to remedy the appearance of the fused tooth. Also the two teeth growing under her gums at the moment, what are we to make of this? She also has very ridged lower teeth.

Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,

Is the tooth primary, milk set? your daughter is six years old if the tooth set is primary then there is no need to worry as the tooth set will be replaced by an permanent tooth, fusion of the tooth is the tooth anomoly which occurs due to some type of abnormality at the time of development of the tooth bud.

Take care!
