Background: Disruption in odontogenesis can influence the normal development of both deciduous and permanent dentition resulting in anomalies in morphology, number, and position of teeth. Although dental anomalies are frequently reported in clinical practice, their occurrence in past populations from archeological contexts is rarely acknowledged.
Aim: To describe two cases of dental anomalies on two non-adult individuals from Italian archeological sites.

Abstract: Dens invaginatus (DI) is a congenital dental anomaly characterized by the presence of a tooth that resembles a "tooth within a tooth." Conversely, dens evaginatus (DE) is a developmental anomaly distinguished by an additional tubercle or cusp on the tooth's crown.
Hearing impairments and dental anomalies are found in many genetic syndromes. Otodental syndrome is a rare combination of hearing loss and the presence of a pathognomonic dental phenotype known as globodontia, in which the tooth exhibits an abnormal globe shape. There is no histologic evidence of structural anomalies in the enamel, dentin, or pulp.
