Introduction. Hyperdontia is an odontostomatologic anomaly characterized by an excess in tooth number. It seems to occur more often in patients with hereditary factors concerning this anomaly: this case represents a rare form of hyperdontia, with bilateral multiple supernumerary teeth, with evident penetrance of the phenotype in the family unit engaged in the present study. The karyotype determ...

Background and Aim: The aim of the present study was to determine the incidence of transmigrated maxillary and mandibular canine teeth and also of the other impacted teeth, apart from third molars, in a Turkish dental patients subpopulation. Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective study of 2900 panoramic radiographs (PRs) taken from patients who were referred to the Faculty of Dentistry...

Aim: To determine the intensity of the impacted third molar and its clinical correlation. Objective: This study was done to check the impacted third molar and to study its clinical correlation. Background: A wisdom tooth or third molar is one of the three molars per quadrant of the human dentition.Wisdom teeth generally erupt between the ages of 17 and 25.Wisdom teeth commonly affect other teet...

Objectives: This study aimed to compare the efficacy of panoramic radiography and the buccal object rule in intraoral periapical radiography for localization of impacted maxillary canine teeth. Methods: A total of 20 panoramic radiographs depicting 28 displaced maxillary canines were evaluated. The ratio of the mesiodistal width of the impacted canine to the mesiodistal width of the...

Dental anomalies affecting the teeth are relatively common. Simultaneous occurrence of multiple dental abnormalities in a single tooth is uncommon and relatively rare. One such abnormality routinely encountered in dental clinics is the talon cusp. It is also referred to as dens evaginatus, characterized by the presence of an accessory cusp-like structure projecting from the cingulum of anterior...
