Schwannoma/Neurilemmoma is a benign mesenchymal tumor, contains no neural elements but arises from the nerve sheath or Schwann's cells. Neurilemmoma is encapsulated and exhibits a characteristic histologic pattern known as Antoni type A and Antoni type B with Verocay bodies. The lesion is partially encapsulated but well demarcated from overlying atrophic/ stretched oral mucosa. We present a case of schwannoma occurring in a 60 year old male edentulous patient with a chief complaint of firm, non tender swelling in anterior mandibular region which gradually increased in size. Interestingly, in many areas, traumatic neuromas like proliferations of cells of neural tissue with elongated, wavy nuclei arranged in swirls as well as haphazard manner were noted.Keywords

The talon cusp is a relatively rare developmental anomaly characterized by the presence of an accessory cusp like structure projecting from the cingulum area or cementoenamel junction of the maxillary or mandibular anterior teeth in both the primary and permanent dentition. The prevalence of talon cusp varies considerably among Populations. These are usually seen in maxillary incisors unilaterally. An uncommon presentation of bilateral maxillary palatal talon cusp and its management is reported. The talon cusp can occur as an isolated finding or in association with other dental anomalies and has been reported in patients with Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome, Mohr syndrome, Sturge-Weber syndrome, incontinentia pigmenti achromians and Ellis-van Creveld syndrome. The purpose of this article is to present a case of bilateral talon cusp on geminated maxillary incisors which caused clinical problems and to describe treatment modalities.Keywords
