Fusion is a sort of developmental alteration due to the union of 2 adjacent tooth buds. It can be either partial or complete fusion, depending on the stage of tooth development. It can occur in either deciduous or permanent dentition. Here, we report a rare case of fusion in both deciduous and permanent teeth that are in between deciduous maxillary central and lateral incisors and in between permanent mandibular central and lateral incisors in a 10-year-old boy.
