Peg laterals are microdontia (underdeveloped teeth) that affect the adult lateral incisors.
Sometimes, the permanent adult lateral incisor teeth do not develop at all, referred to as congenitally missing laterals.
A true peg lateral incisor is a term reserved for the malformed adult permanent tooth that grows out after the baby tooth has been lost.
The tooth resembles a small peg (a round, pointed and small piece of something) which is where the name came from.
The periodontal ligament is a group of specialized connective tissue and nerve fibers in the mouth that attach the root of a tooth to the upper and lower jaw bone within which it sits.
