Medical and family history did not reveal any related positive findings. On detailed intraoral examination, supernumerary teeth were found dis...

Introduction Supernumerary teeth may be defined as extra teeth occurring within the dental arch. These teeth may be found within the deciduous dentition, but are more commonly found within the permanent dentition. The prevalence of supernumerary teeth in the permanent dentition has been investigated in several studies (Table 1); it varies from 0.45% to 4.5%. In Ireland the levels vary between 2...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to examine the radiographic features associated with impacted premaxillary supernumerary teeth, to determine the relationship between their characteristics and their effects on permanent incisors, and to investigate the types of orthodontic treatment that patients received after the extraction of impacted supernumerary teeth. MATERIALS AND METHODS The clinica...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate frequency, anatomic presentation, and quantities of supernumerary parathyroids glands in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (HPT1) associated with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1), as well as the importance of thymectomy, and the benefits of localizing examinations for those glands. METHODS Forty-one patients with hyperparathyroidism associated with MEN1...

Most supernumerary teeth are impacted and asymptomatic. Objective. The aim of this paper is to describe two cases of sequential development of supernumerary teeth in the mandibular premolar region, identified during orthodontic treatment. Reports. The first case describes the radiographic follow-up of a female patient that presented a supernumerary tooth at the age of 9 years and 10 months in t...

hyperdontia or supernumerary teeth in both arches without any syndromic manifestation are extremely rare. supernumerary teeth are commonly associated with gardner’s syndrome, cleft lip and palate, cleidocranial dysplasia and trichorhinophalangeal syndrome. five cases of non-syndromic multiple premolars of maxillary and mandibular arches in indian patients are presented here. this case series re...

The incidence of nonsyndromic supernumerary premolars is rare. Supernumerary premolars are likely to undergo pathological changes. The most commonly encountered complications with these teeth are dentigerous cyst and root resorption of the adjacent tooth. This paper is about impacted double fused supernumerary premolars in the right mandiblular body associated with an impacted first premolar in...

A supernumerary tooth is one that is additional to the normal series and can be found in almost any region of the dental arch. Clinically, supernumerary teeth are able to cause different local disorders. It is important for the dentist to be aware of the clinical complications of supernumerary teeth, the most common being the delayed eruption of permanent teeth. Early diagnosis and management o...

Hyperdontia or supernumerary teeth in both arches without any syndromic manifestation are extremely rare. Supernumerary teeth are commonly associated with Gardner's syndrome, cleft lip and palate, cleidocranial dysplasia and trichorhinopha-langeal syndrome. Five cases of non-syndromic multiple premolars of maxillary and mandibular arches in Indian patients are presented here. This case series r...

A supernumerary ovary is an exceedingly rare disorder, in which the structure containing ovarian tissue is located at some distance from the normally placed ovary. 16 cases of endometriosis or tumors originating in a supernumerary ovary have been published in the English literature, but no case of coexisting endometriosis and a tumor has been published. We present the case of a 40-year-old fema...
