چکیده

Supernumerary teeth or hyperdontia are defined as the teeth that exceeds the normal dental formula, regardless of their location and morphology. A supernumerary tooth is a developmental anomaly and it has been argued to arise from multiple aetiologies. Supernumerary teeth with orthodox shapes and sizes, that resemble the normal dentition are called 'supplemental teeth'. The supplemental teeth are often overlooked because of their normal shapes and sizes. Supplemental lateral incisors are rare and bilateral cases are even rarer, with only two cases being reported in the literature till date. Therefore, we are describing a rare case of non-syndromic, bilateral, supplemental, maxillary, lateral incisors and we have discussed the management of supernumerary teeth.

Hyperdontia is a developmental anomaly that is hypothesized to arise from multiple causes. Supernumerary teeth may remain embedded in the alveolar bone or can erupt into the oral cavity. When such teeth remain embedded, they may cause disturbances to developing teeth. Erupted supernumerary teeth can cause aesthetic or functional problems, especially when situated in the maxillary anterior regio...
