Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate the impacted supernumerary teeth which were initially detected on panoramic radiographs by using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Materials and Methods In this retrospective study, supernumerary teeth diagnosed on panoramic radiographs taken from patients who had admitted for routine dental treatment were evaluated using CBCT. Patients...

OBJECTIVES To investigate the prevalence , gender difference , arch , morphology and position within the arch of supernumerary molar (SM) teeth in a referred Italian Caucasian population. STUDY DESIGN Records of 25,186 young patients were evaluated. Only data related to supernumerary teeth in the posterior region of the jaws were analyzed. The diagnosis of hyperdontia was formulated during th...

During a survey in a rural area of northern Namibia (South West Africa) in 1988,4-year-old twin boys were seen (Fig 1). One child had a supplemental primary maxillary lateral incisor on the right side; the other had a supplemental primary maxillary incisor on the left side (Figs 2 and 3, see next page). Root length occlusal and panoral radiographs were taken which showed that each child had a s...

OBJECTIVE There is no data specific to the Qatari population on the prevalence and distribution of hyperdontia. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and distribution of hyperdontia in the permanent teeth among a group of Qatari sample and to compare the present results with findings from other populations. MATERIALS AND METHODS Records of 1269 Qatari patients (674 females; ...

INTRODUCTION Previous studies have reported high levels of success with intraseptal injection for various dental procedures but provide limited information on the use of the injection during endodontic treatment. Therefore, the purpose of this prospective study was to determine the anesthetic efficacy of the supplemental intraseptal technique in mandibular posterior teeth diagnosed with symptom...

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...

Nonsyndromic familial hyperdontia/supernumerary teeth is a rare disorder of odontogenesis characterized by an excess number of teeth with familial background. They can be supplemental (resembling natural teeth), conical, tuberculate or molariform. Early clinical and radiographic examination of the supernumerary teeth allow for optimal yet minimal treatment. This article reports two rare cases o...

An increased number of teeth in relation to normal dental formula is called hyperdontia, and the additional tooth are termed as supernumerary tooth. A supplemental a that closely resembles shape its adjacent with which they associated supplements for occlusion. Primary dentition presents lower prevalence compared permanent dentition.
