Accumulation of the tooth cementum above the tooth cervix and over the enamel, forming thus cementum cingulum and sometimes covering the enamel surface in the location of the fissures, is a common feature in some herbivores and it is called ''cementum spurs''. In this study, a rare case of cementum spurs in the population, from the South Europe - Dalmatia (Adriatic coast of Croatia) is presented. The authors conclude that the existance of the cementum spurs (coronal cementum) as a higher instance, is a result of specific anatomical selfpreservation of the tooth in the alveolar socket.
