supernumerary teeth are defined as the teeth developed in excess of the number found in a normal dentition. supernumerary canine is an extremely rare finding particularly in the mandible. this case report presents a 25-year-old female patient with the unique feature of bilateral mandibular supplemental supernumerary canines. the patient was non-syndromic without any other supernumerary teeth.

A supernumerary tooth was detected in the left maxilla during an osteology teaching session with undergraduate medical students. Supernumerary teeth have previously been detected in individuals who have approached a dental surgeon with a complaint and who have then been diagnosed by X-ray. Asymptomatic cases are frequently not diagnosed in time and it is only the malalignment or delayed eruptio...

INTRODUCTION A case report showing the removal of a supernumerary tooth from the nasal cavity by means of an endoscopic approach is presented. MATERIALS AND METHODS A 9-year-old healthy child presented to our department because of the right central incisor which appeared clinically rotated. The observation of orthopantomography revealed the presence of a supernumerary tooth in the anterior ma...

Since abnormal tooth morphology can predispose to caries and periodontal disease, careful management of fused teeth is essential. In this paper we report a rare case of a fused molar and supernumerary tooth and describe its management. Caries was removed from the tooth complex under local anesthesia. The pulp chamber of the supernumerary tooth was exposed without involvement of second molar pul...

a case of maxillary antrolith in a 14-year-old girl is presented. a radiopaque mass, thought to be a supernumerary tooth, was incidentally found on a panoramic radiograph obtained for orthodontic purposes. during surgical exploration the maxillary sinus was penetrated and 6 calcified masses were discovered. histopathologic analysis revealed a calcium deposition around a necrotic mass.

Supernumerary teeth may be defined as any teeth or tooth substance in excess of the usual configuration of 20 deciduous and 32 permanent teeth. Gemination is defined as an attempt by a single tooth bud to divide, with a resultant formation of either a large tooth with a bifid crown or two completely divided teeth throughout the crown and root. Geminated supernumerary premolar is a rarity and th...

Dentigerous cysts are developmental odontogenic cysts and are always associated with an unerupted or developing tooth bud. Mesiodens is a supernumerary tooth found in the anterior maxilla. Supernumerary teeth seldom associate with dentigerous cysts and dentigerous cysts around supernumerary teeth account for 5% of all dentigerous cysts. Here we report a case of dentigerous cyst in association w...

A supernumerary tooth is a tooth that is additional to the normal series of teeth. These can occur anywhere in the primary or permanent dentition and are most commonly found in the anterior maxilla. Supernumerary canines are rare with little available literature and case reports in this area. This case presents a patient with a unilateral maxillary supernumerary deciduous and permanent canine a...

supernumerary tooth is one of the developmental problems in children. mesiodens is a supernumerary tooth present in the midline between the two central incisors. it usually results in oral problems such as malocclusion, food impaction, poor aesthetics, and cyst formation. the prevalence of mesiodens varies between 0.09% and 2.05% in different studies. this paper reviews current literature on et...
