Supernumerary teeth are a relatively frequent disorder of odontogenesis characterized by an excess number of teeth. Mesiodens is the most common type of supernumerary tooth found in the premaxilla between the two central incisors. They can be supplemental (resembling natural teeth), conical, tuberculate or molariform. This paper presents a rare, clinically rotated multi-lobed tuberculate type of mesiodens which was associated with another impacted conical mesiodens in a 10 year-old girl.

Abstract


Supernumerary teeth are a relatively frequent disorder of odontogenesis characterized by an excess number of teeth. Mesiodens is the most common type of supernumerary tooth found in the premaxilla between the two central incisors. They can be supplemental (resembling natural teeth), conical, tuberculate or molariform. This paper presents a rare, clinically rotated multi-lobed tuberculate type of mesiodens which was associated with another impacted conical mesiodens in a 10 year-old girl.
