Fused teeth Two teeth united during development
by union of their tooth germs; the teeth may be
joined by the enamel of their crowns, by their root
dentin, or by both.
Gemination: It is the formation of two teeth from the same follicle, and there is
one common pulp chamber, which results in the embryological persistence of
dental lamina. In gemination, the normal number of teeth is usually present for a
given dental age, but one is geminated.

Tooth codes
1 Central incisors (permanent teeth)/(deciduous teeth)
2 Lateral incisors (permanent teeth)/(deciduous teeth)
3 Canines (permanent teeth)/(deciduous teeth)
4 1st Premolars (permanent teeth)/1st molar (deciduous teeth)
5 2nd Premolars (permanent teeth)/2nd molar (deciduous
teeth)
6 1st Molars (permanent teeth)
7 2nd Molars (permanent teeth)
8 3rd Molars (permanent teeth)

Note: When the supernumerary tooth is in between two
adjacent teeth in that arch, the position of the supernumerary
tooth shall be coordinated with the tooth, which is medial to
the tooth and not the distal tooth. This rule is not applicable to
mesiodens or the supernumerary tooth in the midline of the
arch wherein both teeth at the midline have to be recorded for
notations. To further clarify, in notating a fused tooth, the
normal tooth to which there is a fusion will be taken into
consideration.
